On June 13, 1953, she married the love of her life, Robert D. "Bob" Davidson, and they celebrated 62 years together before Bob preceded her in death in 2015.

Bob and Evelyn raised four children in Buchanan, before moving to Baldwin in 1975. Together they owned and operated the Pines Motel, Baldwin Creek Motel, Pines Canoe Livery, Pines Campground and Pines Fur Company.

Their business brought them many happy memories and great friendships.

Along with her husband, Bob, Evelyn was preceded in death by her parents, Ernest and Ruth Meyers; and her sister, Gladys Morse.
