Just wan to express our sorrow at Aunt Evelyn's passing. She had the patience to teach me how to sew when I was a teenager, which became a life long hobby. Her joie de vivre, energy and enthusiasm for life and her different causes was awe inspiring and provided a good example of perseverance. It is only fitting that her mass will be at Holy Name, since she worked so hard to keep it open against all odds. Know that she was very much loved by the "Ventura" side of the family.
