Evala was a good friend, and I miss her. She was such a loyal person. Any time I planned anything with her, I knew I could always count on her. She understood how to make learning fun for girls. Girls were earning patches and interest projects. She would have been a wonderful teacher. As a Girl Scout Trainer, she helped so many leaders get a great start in Scouting.

I just recently learned that my dear friend, Evala, has passed away. In Girl Scouts, we have a song about friendship. It goes, "Make new friends, but keep the old, one is Silver, the other is Gold". Evala is my "Gold, Forever Friend". Evala knew more about Girl Scouting than any person I knew. She was loved by her girls, as well as adults. I worked with Evala planning several Cadette and Senior Girl Scout programs in our Council. One of the most memorable events was the Great inner tube race at Wiggins Pass Beach. We had a full day of fun planned by Evala, Marsha, and her girl scouts.
My life was enriched by knowing her and learning from her. I will especially miss her sense of humor. She had so many funny stories. 97 years is a good life. I will miss her.

I was just talking about Evala last evening! She was an amazing woman! She was my daughter's Girl Scout leader and a mentor to myself as well as my daughter. I hope I can follow in her footsteps and continue to take inspiration from her in my Girl Scout leader role. She was always smiling and I have many happy memories of Girl Scout camping with her. She was such an amazing person to know. I loved how she taught the girls to "clown". Evala loved clowns and wasn't afraid to try anything. I loved her laugh, I know she's still laughing. Rest in Peace, dear Evala.

I was just talking about Evala last evening! She was an amazing woman. She was my daughter's Girl Scout leader and a mentor to me as well as my daughter. I hope I do her justice in continuing to be a Girl Scout leader and will lead with her inspiration. I had many wonderful times with her at GS camp and she kept me in line. :) She was always laughing and I loved that she taught the girls how to "clown". She will be remembered by me and my family with much love.
