My condolences to all, especially to Uncle Dan, Danny and Cheryl. Auntie Evelyn was always such a sweet person. I am so sorry for her suffering and for your sorrow. Many people have found great comfort in God's promise at Rev. 21:4 "And he will wipe out every tear from their eyes, and death will be no more, neither will mourning nor outcry nor pain be anymore. The former things have passed away." I wish you much comfort and love.

To all the family.I'm sorry for the loss you all feel. Her being your mom or sister or gramma or Aunt or your wife. I knew Evelyn for 12 yrs. What i found with her is a great compassion for others. When she would come over, her yelling Linda Lou, or whenever Linda would be on the phone. Evelyn always yelled out "hi Jeff" I am going to miss that. She had a great love for her pets including our Ginger and Dusty. She was quite a woman. Her smile and laughter could light up the room, as it is doing in heaven right now. Heaven is a better place now with her in it.

To Evelyn''s dearest family: As the days and weeks pass and you return to your usual routines take comfort in knowing you all did the very best you could for her. Every family should be so lucky to have loved ones like you. My heart goes out to each of you. She was my friend since grammer school and I will miss her so much but am thankful that her suffering is over. God Bless you all.....Carol Mandich
