Yolanda Ann Boren, 73, passed away on April 13, 2026. She was born on February 6, 1953, in Beaufort, South Carolina to parents Audrey Faye Dunaway and James Pinkney Summers.

She was a strong and spirited woman who truly lived life her way. She worked for many years at Bartlett Collins Glass Factory where she built lasting friendships and was known for her dedication and work ethic.

Yolanda loved spending time with her family, especially at gatherings where laughter was always present. Her grandchildren were her pride and joy, and she never missed an opportunity to talk about them. She also enjoyed trips to the casino, meeting friends at the Elks Lodge, going to the movies, and watching old westerns at home. She loved driving fast and being behind the wheel herself.
