Artie Louise (Jorden) Yaw passed into the arms of the Lord on February 8, 2014 at the age of 86 after a prolonged illness. She was born in Ohio on August 21, 1927 and resided in Akron for most of her married life.
She retired from Fazio's Supermarket where she was loved by the many customers she spoke with daily. Artie had a kind soul, never met a stranger, and made friends everywhere she went. Praying for those she knew were having trouble and sending cards to brighten the lives of people was her way of letting friends know she cared about them. Artie loved roses and her two beloved dogs, Blondie and Rags, who passed a few years ago.
She is survived by sons, James (Lela) Legg and Larry Legg, and daughters, Janyce (Sam) Leaver and Gloria Likens. She is also survived by many grandchildren and great grandchildren.
Her friends and family will always miss her, but never forget the woman who was so filled with love. Artie was preceded in death by her parents, Mary and Earl Jorden.
She was the widow of Walter Lee Legg and Don A. Yaw.
Cremation has taken place and no services are planned.
