Floyd was a great churchman and Board member for Graceworks Lutheran Services. I especially enjoyed traveling with him to national conferences of LeadingAge and Lutheran Services in America. Blessings to all of Floyd's family as you mourn his loss. - Bill Serr, President Emeritus, Graceworks Lutheran Services

Mr. Evans will always be special to the Lester Family. He was kind and friendly to all of the children who attended Westwood Luthern Church. Mr. and Mrs. Evans made me feel as if I were family. When I was young, I loved it when Mr. and Mrs. Evans would go out on the town. My sister, Winnie, would babysit Jonathan, Cedric, and Terry. Sometimes I would be allowed to go with her. Mr. and Mrs. Evans had the best snacks.
To Jonathan, Cedric, and Terry, just love each other. It's impossible to change the past. But, you can manage the present and look forward to the future. I love all of you, especially you, Cedric.
