Evelyn was an original resident of the 555 Cornelia Bldg. as was I. However, I never met her until the building became a condo in 1979. Since that time we have shared many meals, bridge games, rummy que games, daytime trips, etc. I always referred to her as a "runner" because she rarely stayed home. She will be greatly missed by all of us.

I did not know Evelyn well, but always admired her ability to carry her years so beautifully. She was a real lady.

This summer my sister Carol and I visited our aunt Evelyn Augustin for her birthday. Not long after we arrived, we were invited to Evelyn Bloom's apartment to meet this very charismatic woman. We found her to be a very charming and warm woman who seemed genuinely interested in our life stories. Before we left, (she had a date to play cards) she gave us each a pretty deck of cards. When I think of Evelyn I keep hearing the Nat King Cole song Unforgettable.
Unforgettable, that's...

Evelyn was a true friend of ours and to our family. With the death of our aunt, Anne Greenspan in 1987, and our mother, Diana Greenspan in 1992, she became the living link to their memory. We would see Evelyn as much as we could, both in Chicago when we visited as well as when she visited Miami. We looked forward to seeing her and showing off our grand-children, the great-grandchildren of her friends.
We received a phone message only last week from her thanking us for the...

Evelyn was my friend and neighbor at 555 Cornelia since 1982 and I will miss her. She was a wonderful role model -- She always dressed to the 9's and never let her health keep her from doing the things she enjoyed. I am grateful that she and I were able to go to the theatre and dinner 2 weeks ago. (We had a wonderful time!)
My sympathy to everyone in her family. I know that you all will miss her.
