A loving and beautiful soul, Yvonne L. Gotschall, 80, passed away on Wednesday,

December 23, 2020 with her loving children and grandchildren just feet away.

Yvonne was born in Duck, WV on March 18, 1940, daughter of the late Denver

and Tressie Jarvis Nottingham.

Yvonne was a member of the Scotch Ridge Presbyterian Church, and a retiree of

the Buckeye Local School District. Yvonne is preceded in death by her husband of

58 years, Jay E. Gotschall, Sr., brothers Delmis, Robert (Red), Jim and John

Nottingham.

Yvonne is survived by daughters, Kelly (Terry) Zelek, of Adena, Kimi (Eric)

Dodds of Westerville, Ohio, and a son Jay E. (Katherine) Gotschall, Jr of Rayland,

grandchildren Jaycee Gotschall of Dillonvale, Jesse (Nicole) Dodds of

Westerville; Morgan Dodds of Exton, Pa; and a great granddaughter Lylah Rose

Dodds of Westerville. In addition, her extended family, Tony Zelek (Emily) and

sons Landon and Elliott Zelek, and daughter-in-law Katherine Gotschalls' children

Kayla, Dillon, and Derek.

The family would also like to acknowledge their gratitude to the compassionate

staff of the Belmont Manor Nursing Care Facility that lovingly cared for their

mother and took it upon themselves to see that Yvonne was treated as if she was

one of their own family members. Yvonne's family was by her side almost daily

and took note of the staff that really made a difference in her quality of care and

will be forever grateful.

A private memorial service will be held for the family, with entombment at Holly

Memorial Gardens. Services are entrusted to Wilson Funeral Homes 154 Second St. Dillonvale, Ohio.

Please no flowers nor memorial contributions, but rather keep Yvonne's memory

alive by rendering her guidance to lend a helping hand to someone in need,

a child, family in need, the elderly, it makes no difference of the nature.

A heartfelt gesture of any kind would bring a smile and warm her heart with gladness.

In addition, Yvonne's family would also like to mention their mother's love for animals and her ability to tame any animal that would wander into the yard.

Her children could fill pages with stories of various animals that filled their home with laughter and

love.
