I had only met Erva two years ago but she made a huge impact on me and my life. She was a dear, dear person. Her faith was very strong and she definitely shined a light in my life. She will be truly missed. I can honestly say that I love and will definitely miss her. May she rest in peace.

I was very sorry to learn of Erva's passing. I worked at Aileen in Woodstock with her before moving from the area. We stayed in touch over the years. She was a very sweet and kind lady. She will be greatly missed by all who knew her.

The loss of this very special lady leaves quite a void. I did not know Erva until 1992 when I learned through my genealogy research that we were 3rd cousins through our maternal family line. Since then we bonded and shared our daily lives. I will miss the phone calls, visits, and shopping trips; most of all, I will miss my dear cousin and friend. She lived her faith and I am blessed to have had her in my life. God bless.

Erva was a dear, sweet lady who was so concerned for others. She always wrote cards and notes and reached out to those in need of prayer or healing. I always looked forward to seeing her smiling face in church each Sunday. I will miss her greatly. I'm so very sorry for your loss and I am praying for your family.

I have so many fond memories of Evra growing up. She was a wonderful friend of my parents and I always enjoyed spending time with her. She always had the best snacks when I visited her. The first time I ever had wink soda was with her and I thought it was the best drink ever. She will be greatly missed. May god give you peace and comfort.
