To the family and friends of "Yogi Bear", we would like to extend our most sincere condolences for the lost of this amazing man. We were truly heartbroken to learn that he had transitioned to become an ancestor after knowing him and hearing the wonderful sounds of his amazing voice throughout the years. He will definitely be missed by all who knew him.
