In Loving Memory of Margaret "Evelyn" Smith

My deepest sympathy extended to the family in the loss of such a precious soul! Evelyn was certainly a blessing to all who were enriched because she was a part of their lives. I was always blessed to be in her presence. Continued blessing to her family and caregivers, for all the love and kindness they supported Evelyn with throughout these many years. Evelyn was such an example of the love of God... what a big heart!
Love and prayers are being lifted.

To Evelyn's family - You have our deepest sympathies on her passing. I always enjoyed my calls to see to her on her birthday and when our church would carol at her house at Christmastime. We regret that we will be unable to be with you on Wednesday. We will be out of town that day. Karen Carmickle and Mark Heistand
