Yvonne Gloria Sundberg, age 80, of Buffalo, died Wednesday, Nov. 6, 2013, at Lake Ridge Care Center in Buffalo after a long, hard battle with cancer.

She was born Dec. 1, 1932, in Minneapolis, the daughter of Romane and Almeda (Rasmussen) Frederick.

Yvonne was great at sewing, cooking, canning, and caretaking, having taken care of her father for many years after he had a stroke, her husband for years during a battle with cancer, and then her mother when she was no longer able to live on her own.

Yvonne is survived by her children, Faye (Daniel) Eckland of Paradise, CA, Chantelle Sundberg of Buffalo, and Charles “Joe” Sundberg of Delano; grandchild Jory Sundberg of Buffalo; and other relatives and friends.

She was preceded in death by her parents; husband Charles Sundberg; and infant brother Dwayne.
