Evie was one of the classiest women we ever knew. She was always kind to our large family and so generous with her time and love for so many. Her passing has left us stunned and so appreciative of the times we shared. Thanks Evie for touching our hearts; we will always remember your wonderful spirit.

My most greatest thought/memory of Yvonne is of her exceptional ability and desire to make sure everyone was welcomed in her life. She was the most gracious host and friend to all. She had a strength within her to accept anyone and anything with out judgment and bias. The faith and vitality that she possessed spilled over. I am truly grateful that I was part of her life and was able to absorb some of it.

Our sincere condolences from your old neighbors - the Sarrack family. If there was one constant in our lives as kids, it had something to do with the Freerks. From Barb and Carol "babysitting" to Patty, Twyla and me playing old 45's on the portable record player or with Barbie and Ken in her bedroom or hanging out in the backyard playhouse to David, Tony & Chris loading turtles from Beaver Lake into their boat to store in our porch (as if they were going to be allowed to keep them!). Thanks for letting us eat freely from your raspberry bushes that divided our yards, sharing cherries from your tree and daylillies from your garden (which have since multiplied copiously in my yard). You and your family filled our lives in more ways than we can express.
Love,
Gust, Barbara, Tamara, Twyla, Anthony & Chris
