Dear family. I have wonderful memories of you Mom, Eva, as an additional child. Eva took care of my sister and me as my mom worked in the school system. Eva did the many things in a day that kept me in line, guiding me through childhood. My most memoriable insident was being in a angry tantrum and Eva standing at the door way laughing as I in anger emptied things out of my drawers. What a valuable lesson. I can remember being angry and frustrated that she didn't do anything, just eventually told me to put things back. But what a learning experience not to take myself so seriously! Thank you for sharing her with me, and THANK YOU Eva for your love and caring! Diana Elliott Austin
