Katherine Kemler lit a candle

“Yma Lemon was a wonderful person and a masterful hair colorist. She not only helped me with beauty matters for over 30 years but she helped me through two bouts of different types of cancer. We cried together after her sister’s untimely death, and had many discussions about life, politics, and faith. She has a beautiful soul which will hopefully always be with us in our hearts forever.”
