Not sure what to say?

Yes, it´s funny how certain things throughout childhood are stamped into your brain while other events are lost. Mrs Snyderis remembered because of her kindness and her incredible meals. We, as elementary students, had no idea how lucky we were to have her as our school cook. In addition to the chili beans and cinnamon rolls, she also made some delicious dinner rolls. Sounds like Mrs. Snyder had a wonderful life. Rest in Peace.

Evelyn was such a vibrant and strong person. She inspired all who surrounded her.

We were sorry to hear about your loss. We have not seen Evelyn in years. I remember going with my mom to her house and she would cut my moms hair. We even believe she was instrumental in encouraging my mom to go to work at Lodi Unified as a cook. My mom was Evelyn's cousin. My mom was Glendola (Glen) Hunger McMillen. My grandmother, Myrtle, and Ethel were sisters. With deepest Sympathy. The McMillen Family

All of these many years since I was able to enjoy your delicious cooking at Elkhorn school I have often thought about you and all of the Elkhorn students who had so much love for you.

Sad to hear of your passing Eve..you were such a beautiful lady inside and out. Thank you for being such a fan of my cooking when I worked at Lodi commons. Rest peacefully beautiful lady. My most sincere condolences to your family amd friends.

Those of us who went to Elkhorn Elementary School were so lucky to have Mrs. Snyder as our lunch cook for so many years. Yes, she made delicious cinnamon rolls and chili beans plus her green salad. I had my mother find out how she made her baked chicken and it turns out she used mayonnaise before dipping in flour. Her food was so good that even as a child I wanted to know how she made it. She brought us such comfort with our meals. It was also fun when you were in the 8th grade and you could...

YES! I do remember those incredible cinnamon rolls along with the chili beans. Such a nice woman at Elkhorn School. That was a time when children got wholesome, home-cooked food. Rest in peace with the Lord, Mrs. Snyder. And thank you for the good memories. Marit
