William J. Yost

William J. Yost of Langhorne, PA died peacefully at home surrounded by his loving family on Saturday September 7, 2019.  He was 83.

          Born in Pottsville, PA William was the beloved husband of the late Nannette (nee Mika), JoAnne (nee Lacovara), and Irene “Johnine” (nee Karwejna) Yost, the loving father of the late William J., Jr. and the son of the late Francis and Anna Flannery Yost.

          William proudly answered the call to serve the country by enlisting in the United States Navy.  Upon his return from service, William started what would be his lifelong career with Peco.  Since his retirement, he enjoyed time spent in Florida, a multitude of rounds of Golf, but above all William cherished the moments he spent with his beloved family.  William will be greatly missed but eternally loved by everyone who had the pleasure to have been a part of his life.

          William is survived by his loving children Lisa Schultz and her husband Rick and Robert Yost and his wife Cindy.  He is also survived by his daughter-in-law Patricia Yost and his seven loving grandchildren and four adoring great grandchildren.
