is the fine lady still alive, anyone have any contactt details???

It's my understanding that Yvonne was born in the 1930's, so that would make her around 75 years of age now (if still alive).

I don't believe her passing has ever been reported but that may just mean that she's 'under the radar' as far as the press are concerned these days.

She is indeed alive.  She can't be coerced, convinced to perform again though. Over the years quite a few people have tried to encourage her to return to music but she's steadfastly refuses.

 

Regards,
