Yvonne C. Puma

June 16, 1946~August 16, 2022

Yvonne C Puma, 76, of New Port Richey, passed away on August 16th, 2022, under the care of Hospice with her son at her bedside.

She was born in Flushing Queens, New York, on June 16th, 1946, the daughter of Emile and Marie-Anne Bizier. She was preceded in death by her spouse Paul Puma and granddaughter Amanda Moore. She is survived by her son Thomas Elliott; daughter-in-law Dawn Elliott; daughter Theresa Elliott; grandsons Tristan Elliott and Joshua Moore; greatgrandchildren Kylie, Jordan, Jaxson, and Vito; sisters Florence Steller and Irene Agrillo; as well as many nieces and nephews.

She graduated from Flushing High School and raised her family in New York before relocating to Florida in 1990. She worked as a secretary for many years, finally retiring from Applicant Insight where she spent her remaining working years.

Yvonne was an avid animal lover (dogs, cats, birds, iguanas, it didn’t matter). She would feed all of the stray cats in her neighborhood and the area where she worked. She would get up every morning before work and walk the neighborhood with food just to make sure they had food and then would return in the evening to do it again. She never lost her love for animals.

A memorial service and gathering will be held at Dobies Funeral Home 6616 Congress St., New Port Richey, on September 10th from 2:00pm-3:30pm. A Celebration of Life to follow with friends and family. Details to follow regarding location.

Tommy and Dawn, My heart goes out to you. I only knew her for one day on the boat and she was a fantastic person in my mind. I will keep you and her in my prayers. We will be moving Sept. 10, so I am afraid we will miss the service.

May God be with you and bless you during these difficult times.

Tommy, Dawn and family, my deepest condolences to all of you. I worked with Yvonne for many years and she was an amazing person inside and out. I have many great memories of her & all the laughs we used to have. I can remember her driving around through the work parking lots and surrounding areas in her yellow hotrod car feeding all the stray cats. I jokingly used to call her ‘the crazy cat lady’ and we would laugh. She had a heart of gold and so much compassion for everyone. She sure loved her family. She would proudly share stories about each of you. She was also a huge hit around the office during Halloween with her awesome costumes. Everyone would wait to see what she would show up as this year. I miss those days. Yvonne was a very special person and we were all blessed to have known her. So sorry for your loss. 💔 🌹
