Evelyn Ruth (Bloom) Sprague passed away January 8, 2015 resulting from complications of a fall two days before Christmas.
Evelyn was born on July 12, 1928, third generation born in Watsonville to Lauran and Ethel Bloom, Pioneer family of the Pajaro Valley. She lived most of her 86 years in Watsonville, where she had many friends and family. In her earlier years she enjoyed helping out with Girl Scouts, Square dancing, and swimming at the YMCA. Amusing stories of her life will always be great memories for her grandchildren.
Evelyn is survived by her two daughters, Louella (& Lee) Davis of San Jose and Susan (& John) Stroud of Soquel; as well as, five grand-children; Sara, Josh, Jeff, Hanna,and Rachel.
Evelyn's final resting place is in Pajaro Valley Memorial Park; along side her husband of 46 years, Glenn who died in 1994. She requested no service so her children and grandchildren enjoyed a beautiful winter day picnicking and reminiscing at the cemetery.
