My prays and thoughts are with you.
I worked with Evelyn in Supply at the Shipyard.
She was one of the nicest
people that I had the pleasure
knowing and working with.
May God help in this time of sorrow.

Evelyn was such a sweet and loving person. Her heart was filled with doing for others. My memories of her will be of her lil giggle and sweet voice. She will definitely be missed but an added addition in heaven.
