Please accept our deepest condolences for your family’s loss.
Evelyn was a wonderful person who truely love her family very deeply. The short time i came to know her we became very good friend. I know she is in the house of God,i will miss her, but i know God is always on time. God bless you.
I thoroughly enjoyed working for and getting to know Evelyn. I looked forward to our time together and she did also. We became friends and I always made sure I had time for our ‘ Pepsi break.’ She loved her family deeply. I know Evelyn is with our Savior and all her loved ones in heaven, but I will miss her and will never forget her. She was one of a kind, a very special lady. I pray our Heavenly Father will comfort you and give you peace.
