Evelyn was a precious sister in Christ and member of our Sunday School Class. She was such an encourager to me and I really missed her after I moved away. Her belief in Jesus Christ as her personal Savior is a comfort to those of us who will miss her, but look forward to seeing her again one day in the presence of our Lord. My sympathy to the family at this time of thier loss. Linda Coon
