Mary "Evelyn" Dehner was my Mother. She was the strongest soul on this earth that I have had the privilege to know. After fourteen years of marriage to my Father, which ended in divorce for the good of our family; she raised eight children on her own. Sometimes this meant working three jobs at a time. She was the matriarch of our family and loved my Father until the day she died, and he loved her too. She taught all of us to praise and trust in God Almighty, Jesus his Son, and The Holy Spirit. Thank your Lord for My Mother.
