Ev always made my visits back East so wonderful.
She shared her recipes with me, provided me with many laughs and made sure I had a good time.
She and Chuck, Sr., were so kind to me when I lost Bill enroute to visit them. We were all blessed to have her a part of our family. My memories of her will sustain me. My deepest condolences to all of the family. Love, Janie Archibald

Our family wishes to express its deepest sympathies for the Rowell family for this wonderful human being. Having met Mrs. Rowell over 40 years ago she always was an inspiration to us in how she lived her life.

We also recall fondly the times we visited her in her beautiful home and she spent the...

my nannie... i have so many wonderful memories to share.
you had such a loving and providing nature that was noticed by all, you always had something yummy cooking in the kitchen that i would later sneak from the basement freezers, you would put fresh aloe on my sun burn if i stayed out in the sun too long, you always kept the tv on way too loud and called it the idiot box, you would always let anyone come over and play - if they were a friend of mine, they were a friend of yours,...

I have the fondest memories of Evelyn. During hundreds of visits to the Rowell home as a young neighbor, she always made me feel welcome. When I was a little older, I also recall Evelyn as a terrific hostess during the wonderful Christmas Eve gatherings at the Rowell home. Bright, warm, and witty, Evelyn was a very positive influence on those of us fortunate enough to have known her. As I mourn her loss, I also celebrate a very special woman, her life, and the lives she touched.
