Yvette Mimieux

Ms. Yvette Mimieux (born January 8th, 1941 as "Yvette Carmen Mimieux") died slowly in her palatial home on January 18th, 2022 with her husband, Haward at her side. Her cause of death was said to be due to unspecified Natural causes. She was 81 years old when she passed.

Yvette is survived by her beloved husband Evan Harland Engber​, her siblings, brother Edouardo Mimieux and sister Gloria Mimieux as well as her pet bunny rabbit, Roxy.
Yvette was predeceased by her parents, Maria Montemayor and René Mimieux.

Professionally, Yvette was a Film Actress who was best known for her breakthrough role in the American science fiction movie "The Time Machine".

When she was not working as a Film Actress, Yvette was known for her love of ventriloquism and she would spend ages most Sundays practicing. Ms. Mimieux (the deceased) also spent a millennia visiting with her older sister most Wednesdays when she was able to spare a couple ages. Ever since she was a girl in Los Angeles, many remember Yvette as a wonderful personality with funny tales that entertained everyone. In lieu of flowers, the family asks that you make a sizable donation to the Heart Foundation in Yvette's honor.

A sepulture is scheduled for Saturday the 13th at the chapel in Los Angeles. The service will commence at 11AM with a reception to follow hosted by her older sister at the crematorium where refreshments will be served. All are welcome to the visitation to be held at chapel at 11AM.
