OBITUARY
The Courier-Tribune (Asheboro, NC; 30 October 2012
GREENSBORO Vardelle Dedmond Yow, 91, passed away on Sunday, Oct. 28, 2012.
A celebration of her life will be held on Thursday, Nov. 1, at 3 p.m. at Hanes Lineberry Sedgefield Chapel, with Pastor Kevin Bauswell officiating. Burial will follow in the family plot at Guilford Memorial Park.
Vardelle was born in Greensboro, one of three children of Jesse Harmon Dedmond and Mamie Belle Brown Dedmond. She was a faithful lifetime member of Spring Garden Friends Meeting and the Society of Friends.
She worked as a homemaker and bookkeeper in the family businesses. Vardelle remained active, living in her own home until her brief recent illness and made it to within two weeks of her 92nd birthday.
In her earlier years, she was fond of hand crafts, knitting, crocheting, sewing, painting and sang in a gospel trio with her sister and father. She was a quiet woman with a prodigious green thumb and was famous for taking tiny florist garden plants given to her for special occasions and growing them into four foot high Palm trees touching the ceiling. Vardelle particularly enjoyed the retirement time spent at their beach home on Oak Island and her family.
She was a survivor of Greensboro's first recorded tornado which famously struck downtown Greensboro in April of 1935, doing damage estimated at over $1,200,000 over 2.5 miles and she remained ever after an intense observer of changing weather patterns and cloud formations.
Vardelle was preceded in death by her husband of 72 years, Thomas B. Yow Sr.; her brother; a granddaughter; and grandson.
She is survived by a sister, Agnes D. Ozment; two nieces; and a nephew. Left to cherish her memory are two sons, Thomas B. Yow Jr. and Barry D. Yow and wife, Mary Ann, of Asheboro; two daughters, Brenda Y. Parker and husband, Dr. H.R. Parker and Dianne Y. Porter and husband, James, all of Greensboro; four grandsons; seven great-grandchildren; and two great-great-granddaughters.
The family will receive friends on Thursday, one hour prior to the service, at Hanes Lineberry Sedgefield Chapel.
Memorials may be made to Spring Garden Friends Meeting, 1610 Spring Garden St., Greensboro, NC 27403.
