I met her in September 2022. We were helping the same student. I learned a lot from her. This past year, we didn't work together but we chat in the hallway when we saw each other. Very caring person. Always smiling.

I remember Ev fondly as my garden expert. I became aquainted with her through the SCASD and enjoyed our chats about our gardens, our cats and swapping butternut squash recipes! She would often share some of the bounty from her garden with me---and especially the squash. Ev probably had the best outlook on life for anyone I've ever known. She never complained and always had a smile on her face. She loved the students she worked with and treated everyone as a friend. I will miss her and she will be missed!

I had the privilege of working along side Evelyn for the past 8 years when she provided her occupational services to my clients. I especially remember her kind but stern approach as she requested the following during a writing exercise.
In a stern voice, "left hand on paper, feet flat on floor, right hand holding pencil." My client, a first grader at the time would just giggle!!!
It always made all three of us laugh especially because we knew Ms Davidowski meant business.
