Yvonne M. (Carvalho) Graham

Yvonne Marie Graham, 63, of Rumford, RI, formerly of Beverly, MA, peacefully passed away on Friday, May 17, 2024, at the HopeHealth Hulitar Hospice Center in Providence, RI, surrounded by her loving family. She was the cherished wife of Robert Graham.

Yvonne was born on March 8, 1961, in Cambridge, MA, the beloved daughter of the late Luis Carvalho and Maria Antoinette (Medeiros) Carvalho. She graduated from Everett High School in 1978 and later earned her Associate's Degree from Dean Junior College. For many years, she dedicated herself to her work as a property manager for Harbor Light Community Partners.

Yvonne's passions extended beyond her professional life. She found solace in the pages of a good book and held her family dear above all else. Their presence brought her immeasurable joy and contentment.

In addition to her devoted husband, Bob, Yvonne is survived by her loving sons: Nicholas Cotoia and his wife Talia of Newburyport, MA; Christopher Cotoia of Peabody, MA; and Devin Graham and his wife Chantel of West Bridgewater, MA. She also leaves behind her two cherished granddaughters, who were her pride and joy. Yvonne was the dear sister of Tina Botelho and her husband Steve of East Providence, and she leaves behind many nieces and nephews.
