Yolanda M. Fortini

Fortini, Yolanda M. (Feola) of Hingham, died May 5, 2020 at the age of 102, just days after the death of her husband and love of her life for over 79 years.

Yolanda was born in the Bronx , New York and eventually settled down in her beloved Hamden, Connecticut where she raised her family and lived her life for 60 years.  In her earlier years during WW2, Yolanda worked for the government but decided her true passion was caring for her family and friends.  She was a devout Catholic and very active in her church community.  She and her husband, Peter, eventually sold the house in Connecticut to move into a senior community in Hingham, Ma. Yolanda will be sadly missed by all those who had the pleasure of knowing her.
