Sending my condolences to everyone who loved Evelyn. She will be missed by so many people.
Russ, Doug and Brenda, so sorry for your loss. If it were a diferent world, I would be there. Evelyn was a second mother to me for many years of my life and she will be missed.
I remember when all of you first moved to Benwood and your mom was cooking up a storm for her family. She was so kindhearted woman. A great blessing on this earth She has a beautiful place in God’s kingdom. ❤️
Dear Aunt Evelyn I have only fond memories of you and how you loved and cared for us. I always loved when we could come to your place where I always felt love and safe. Now it’s your turn for eternal rest and peace. Much love to you ❤️
Doug, Russ, Brenda, So sorry for the loss of your mom. She was a wonderful woman. There are so many memories of her, you and my family when we lived next door to each other that I could write a book. We will always remember her. She is one of god’s angels. God Bless.
