So sorry to hear of Evelyn’s passing, Met Evelyn when we were room mothers for you at Milford school. We continued working together in the PTA, Enjoyed Evelyn’s company, had lots of laughs. Grew apart as her and my kids grew up and started their own lives. Wish I had kept contact with her when she moved from Milford. Been reminiscing all am of the old days. Rip Evelyn, you were a wonderful dedicated Mother to your daughters. Prayers are sent for all the family from the bottom of my heart.

Cousin Evelyn is now with our Lord Jesus Christ in whom she believed. Ever since I was a little kid, I enjoyed her company. My prayer goes out to Diane and Laurie and all who know her, but be comforted knowing she is in a much better place.

My sincere condolences to the family. I remember Evelyn from the old days as our birthdays were in November. June Scheer Wandling’s (Evelyn’s cousin on June’s Father’s side of the family), Birthday is November first, my birthday is November 14 ( I am June’s cousin on her Mother’s side of the family) and Evelyn’s Birthday was November 30th. Sometimes we would celebrate them together when we were growing up. We had good times together. She is at peace now.

Our sorrow and deepest Sympathies go out to Evelyn’s family. As cousins we had great visits when visiting her at her Aunt Sue and Uncle Harold’s house. The most rememberable were Evelyn’s picnics. Every year most of the family came. We enjoyed new babies and watching them grow. Chatting and laughing with all our Aunts and Uncles. Evelyn brought us all together at her home for years. She had such a big heart and love of her family. Evelyn is truly going to be missed

Diane, Laura:
I am writing to express my condolences after hearing of the passing of your mother. Although I knew her for a relatively short period in my life, I can truly say that she was the type of person whose spirit can stay with a person. It did with me. I have met many people in my life; I will not forget the short time I knew her. I am proud to say that I knew her.
