Yvonne Rose (Takach) Williamson
June 23, 1944 ~ January 10, 2021
Yvonne Rose (Takach) Williamson, 76, of Weirton, a dearly loved wife, mother, sister and grandmother, passed away at Weirton Medical Center on January 10, 2021. She was stricken with Alzheimer’s and COVID-19.
In addition to her parents, she was preceded in death by her sister, Betty Looman and her grandson Garrett Williamson.
Yvonne was born on June 23, 1944 and graduated from Mingo High School in 1962. She attended the Weirton Heights Church of Christ.
Yvonne spent her youth raising three sons who will never forget her devotion and love. Later in life she loved few things more than spending time with her grandchildren and holding her little Chihuahuas.
Loved and known as GaGa to her grandchildren, she taught them how to make crafts, paint pumpkins or just have fun playing their favorite game. Yvonne also loved arts and crafts and was a self-taught artist who learned to paint beautiful wall murals and make custom crafts.
Yvonne will be missed by her husband, Ron Williamson, her sons, Mark, Rod (Carol) and Christopher (Brandy) Williamson; her brother, Bobby Takach; and her five grandchildren, Cole, Ryleigh, Ali and Parker Williamson.
Cremation services were provided by Greco-Hertnick Funeral Home 3219 Main Street Weirton, WV.

Ron and family my deepest condolences over your great loss. Such a beautiful person, classmate, friend and cousin. I saw Yvonne only once in 58 years and she was still the same Vonnie.
