Yvonne L. Miles, 68, Louisville

Well, it finally happened, I died. At 68 years of age, I stopped harassing people on 9-March, 2022.

I was a retired paralegal and had been in the legal field for over 40 years and loved every minute of it – especially being the official Dubois Circuit Court Reporter in Jasper, Indiana. Murder trials were fascinating to me. But the best civil case was the “Chicken Blowout” trial.

As most of you know, I was an avid IU Basketball fan. I also cheered for any team that played and beat UK.

I am survived by my wonderful husband, Brian J. Miles and his immediate family. I also leave behind my awesome, sweet little family of my son, Michael F. Sutton and his wife, Laura (Scheuer) and my brilliant grandson Dashel whom I will miss the most. Dashel was the light of my life. The time I spent with him was precious. I always said that the best day of my life was the day Dashel was born.

My dear father, Ralph E. Buescher, Sr. preceded me in death in 2018. My acerbic mother, Violet (Berry) Buescher, preceded me in death in 1994.

I am also survived by several nieces and nephews, grandnieces and grandnephews, and cousins. I have two siblings still living, neither of whom deserve mention here. Also surviving is my sweet 20-lb. black cat, Coltrane. My first beloved cat, Tori Sue Torkelson, was cremated and will be scattered with me.

I graduated from South Knox High in Vincennes, Indiana, in 1972 with the best classmates ever. We had a blast in the late ’60s and early ’70s. Peace to you all and Keep On Truckin’.

In order to finally have the smokin’ hot body I’ve always wanted; I chose to be cremated and my ashes spread at an undisclosed site. I still want to stay on this side of the grass! The idea of being buried just kills me (pun definitely intended).

Please come by to say farewell and celebrate my awesome trip through life. Two drink tickets for everyone coming through the door. The party will be held in Louisville, Kentucky, at a later date. Brian and Michael have instructions on how to notify everyone. Be ready to hear all my favorite songs (including my Funeral Playlist), tell stories, and have a drink or two on me! Memorial gifts may be made to the Kentucky Humane Society, NOT the United States Humane Society.

Peace, Love, and Happiness to Everyone!
