Della Josephine Aubin of Melville, Sask. passed away peacefully on Saturday, Feb. 9, 2019 at the age of 70.
Della was born in Prince Albert, Sask. on Oct. 1, 1948, daughter to Henry and Elza (Douglas) Aubin. She grew up in St. Brieux, Sask. and in 1956 the family moved to Saskatoon.
Della worked at various jobs throughout her younger years. In 1985, Della moved to Melville where she met Ross Yannoulis and helped raise his four children. While being a step-mother, Della also worked in the restaurant business along-side Ross in various restaurants they had throughout their time together.
Della had a passion for flowers and started to work at a flower shop at the Parkland Mall in Yorkton in which she later purchased. She continued the business for a number of years. After retiring from the flower shop, she enjoyed being with her grandchildren.
Della missed working with people, therefore she started part-time at Giant Tiger in Yorkton, and helped her partner with his business.
Once her health started to deteriorate, she decided to stay home to tend to the household.
Della had a huge love for animals — her cats (Rebel and Bandit) and her dog (Appollo). You would always find one in her arms or at her feet.
She was predeceased by her father, Henry Aubin; and son-in-law, Jason Schoffer.
Della is survived by her mother, Elza Aubin; brother, Alvin (Edna) Aubin; sister, Shelley (Paul) Levenick; son, Billy Smith; daughter, Holly Schoffer; daughter, April (Kevin) Regnier; daughter, Sandra (Heinz) Wanders; step-daughter, Kelley (Brian) Yannoulis; stepson, Steven Yannoulis; stepson, Michael (Milijana) Yannoulis; and stepson, Jamie (Char) Yannoulis; Ross Yannoulis; as well as numerous grandchildren and great-grandchildren, all left to cherish Della’s memory.
