Obituary For Ms. Yolanda Jeannette Carney
Ms. Yolanda Jeannette Carney affectionately known as “Jeannette,” was born in High Point, NC, on May 24, 1958, to the late Matthew Gray Carney, Sr, and Almeta Geneva Carney. In addition to her parents, she was preceded in death by her brother, Bruce Edward Carney.
Jeannette was a 1977 graduate of T.W. Andrews High School and later in life retired from Hunter Farms Dairy. She was an exceptional person who had a genuine passion for life and a strong drive to succeed. With her many accomplishments, Jeannette never lost her humility and remained a hard-working individual who always strived to give back to her loved ones. She was determined to make a positive impact on the world and always made an effort to be kind and generous to those around her. Jeannette’s absence will undoubtedly leave a deep void in the lives of those who knew her. She will always be remembered for her smile and laughter, her unwavering dedication to making others laugh, and her kind and generous heart.
Jeannette’s life was cut short on this earth; however, she was graced with the innate ability to bridge the gap through her communication and love. This gift is how she has made her mark in this world and how she will be remembered by all who loved her.

So sorry for your loss Cynthia and Matthew you have my deepest sympathy.
Deepest Sympathies to the families. I worked at Hunter Farms with Yolanda over 10 years and we became friends. When she decided to retire early we stayed in touch always remembering each other's birthdays. She told me that I give the best gifts then she would give me a hug. We would talk and laugh for hours about ourselves . I'm going to truly miss our conversation and exchanging Birthday/Christmas gifts. I told her that I was going to call her Yo-yo and she laughed so hard. She said why and I said that's your name Yolanda is too much to say she laughed at me like I was telling a joke. RIH YoYo, your friend Belle
