Dear Evy -
I still think of you so often. It's been ten years since you left us. You will always be in my life even though you are not here physically.
Love,
Linda

I think of you often. We met in the 1970's and shared so many common interests. Sometimes I re-live our escapades on the mountain at Squaw Valley. Our last trip took us to Italy. We talked for hours on the phone.
I miss you madly.

Evy, You have been gone too long! I am still missing your wise and funny advice for marriage and life in general. The funny thing that did happen was that a new bookkeeper we hired had the SAME name as your bookkeeping service "Bottom Line". Ray and I knew you were watching out over him. WE miss you, but know you would have been upset with what is happening today in this world. You are in the Garden of Eden, and that's a better place to be! Keep my dad laughing up there. We love you, always and forever.
Ray and Helen Deringer

Evy was so dear and had an amazing sense of humor! She and I laughed together hundreds of times over the years. My mouth stretched into a grin whenever we met. What a lovely soul! She will be deeply missed. I treasure her memory.

We will all have a special guardian angel to look over us. Dear Evy, I will miss you dearly and will always have you in my heart.
Love,
Linda
