Yvonne Blair Styres
Peacefully, on Wednesday November 1, 2023, in her 34th year, Yvonne Blair Styres walked through the gates of heaven safely into the arms of Jesus. Yvonne loved to be called ‘mommas’ by her precious daughter ‘Boo-boo’ (Kiara). Beloved daughter of Les & Lori Sowden (nee Styres). Loving sister of the late Dean Wade Sowden. Dear granddaughter of Dusty & the late Leslie Sowden and the late Muriel Styres (nee Sault). Yvonne especially loved spending time with her daughter Boo-boo, her mom & dad, and family. She will be fondly remembered by numerous aunts, uncles, cousins, and friends.
Yvonne was an avid chuck wagon competitor with her father, grandfather, and brother. She won numerous barrel racing, and chuck wagon competitions including recognition from the Western Horse Association of Ontario for her Grand Pony Barrel Racing achievements.
During her employment of Chiefswood Park, she heroically saved two tourists from drowning in the Grand River – this is just a glimpse of her caring nature for people. Above all, her greatest accomplishment was being Kiara’s mom.
“I love you Kiara, love Momma’s”.

Psalms 34:18-19
The Lord is close to those who are of a broken heart, and saves them who as of a contrite spirit. Many are the afflictions of the righteous, but the Lord will deliver you out of them all.
