Heidi Yazgier

Heidi Yazgier, 66, passed away on Friday, July 14, 2023, at Robert Wood Johnson University Hospital – Somerset. Born in New Brunswick, she was the daughter of Owen and Eleanor (Baab) Williams.  Heidi dedicated her life to nurturing young minds as a teacher at Mommy Baab's Daycare and Robin's Nest Daycare, and was also a fixture at the Hallmark Store in Middlesex for over 10 years.  She was known as the neighborhood mom and her door was always open to the local children. Outside of work, Heidi had a zest for life. She found joy in fall trips to Bucks County, where she reveled  in the beauty of nature's vibrant colors. She enjoyed arts and crafts, often spending hours painting ceramics. She had a deep affinity for animals, with a special place in her heart for foxes.  Her family and friends will forever hold dear the memories they shared with her.

Heidi was predeceased by her beloved son, Peter, in 2009, and her sister, Caroline Williams.

Heidi is survived by her loving husband of 39 years, William; her daughter, Nikki, and husband Gary; her sister Mary Weber, and husband James.

Cremation was private. Arrangements are in the care of Hagan-Chamberlain Funeral Home, Bound Brook.
