I will never forget all the good times we had in the past years. She was a very good friend and I shall always remember her. She was a real Lady.

Evelyn Roberts was always a woman with an infectious smile and personality. She was a good ( and golfing) friend of my Mother, Ruth Henderson, which is how I originally met her.

I will miss her...........
