Evelyn cherished her family and was a Christian with a deep faith in Jesus Christ. She read from her Bible daily, and it gave her great comfort. She loved attending devotions each week.
Evelyn was very creative in her life as a homemaker. She loved playing the piano and organ, and she sewed like a pro.
The family wishes to give a special "Thank you" to the staff and caregivers at Morningstar Assisted Living and to the Legacy Home and Hospice Care, particularly Anna Neiderman, RN, and to Dr. Allen, the staff, and nurses for the tender loving care they gave to their mother at such a critical time in her life, and for the incredible support they gave to the family.
