Dear Pam, Eileen & Shirley,

Mom and I are so saddened by the passing of your Mom. Our Moms have been good friends for many, many years. Your Mom was such a wonderful lady and so concerned about my Mom when my Dad passed away three years ago. After my Mom moved down to be with me in KY, your Mom would call and they always had nice conversations. I even would chat with her. The last time we called your mother seemed well, so we were shocked to hear the news. Know that we are keeping you in our thoughts and prayers during this difficult time. Linda Baltra & Charlotte Figo (Prospect, KY)

Dear Eileen and family, mere words cannot express what you're going through. Your mother was a very special lady and I will always have fond memories of her and our days in Beacon growing up under her watchful eye.

Evelyn was the best neighbor my husband and I have ever had. She took such an interest in our lives from the minute we moved in and was such a blessing to us. Whether it was brushing the snow off of my car when I was in the house with a little baby or stopping by just to say hello, she was an amazing woman that I will never forget. Our prayers go out to her family.
