She also enjoyed camping and truly loved going on Carnival Cruises with her husband. She is survived by her husband, Michael R. Yarema, Sr.; a daughter, Joy Cecil Gunter and her husband William of Willards; a step son, Michael R. Yarema, Jr and his companion Lucille Johnson of Snow Hill; a step daughter, Melinda Yarema and her fiancé Charles Glover of Salisbury; five grandchildren and one expected to be born any day, Harmony, Willow, Jacob, Destiny and Little Michael; a brother, Dean Adkins and his wife Dot of Delmar; and two cousins, Brian Cordrey and Jeff Cordrey, both of Delmar.
