When I was back in Erie this past summer and attended Grace, one of the people I wanted to see was Evelyn. I was glad to see her, get a hug, and tell her that the little table she gave me 20 yrs ago is still in our dining room. I'll miss that hug next time I'm back in Erie.

You're in our thoughts and prayers!

Evelyn was the most kindest, forgiving person I knew. Even when faced with heartache and dissappointment, she was able to rise above it when her heart was broken. She was an inspiration to me and she never even knew it. Rest in peace Evelyn. God loves you.
