Susan Evans Obituary

EVANS,
Susan Ann

Susan Ann Evans was born June 7th, 1947 in Havre, Montana to Sigurd and Catherine (Billy) Dyrland. She was raised in Big Sandy, Montana and graduated from Big Sandy High School in 1965. She went on to college at the Columbus School of Nursing in Great Falls, Montana and graduated in 1968.
After graduating, Sue was able to travel through Europe for three months and moved to Denver, Colorado thereafter to work at a local hospital as an RN.
Upon her mother's death in Big Sandy, Sue moved to Spokane. She worked at Sacred Heart Hospital for a faithful 32 years. She loved caring for and helping people. While in Spokane she was married to John C. Evans of Spokane and had two children, Russell S. and Dianna C.
Retiring in 2009, Sue spent most of her time knitting and making crafts for others. She was known and loved for her witty sense of humor and admired for her strength. She was a selfless person who was a mother to many that were not born to her. She will be missed dearly.
Sue passed peacefully at her home in Spokane on September 25th, 2011. She is survived by her daughter Dianna of Spokane. A celebration of life will be held Friday, September 30th. Please e-mail for details: [email protected].

Dear Diana, I just found a link to your mother's obituary today. My heart and prayers go out to you. I met you many years ago when you were younger at a Big Sandy reunion thingie. I was unable to make the last reunion you and you mother attended, but saw many pictures--you have indeed become a beautiful woman like your mother. Your mother was a childhood best friend/classmate. I used to spend much time at her home and we had so much fun. After I moved to NY, I kept in contact at Christmas and on her birthday--I will so miss her. God Bless and you and she are in my prayers.

Dianna, Your mother always took joy in watching you grow into the amazing woman you are today. I know that she will always be with you because your heart is as big as hers. She always thought of others before herself and loved to shower people with her kindness and all her talents. She will be greatly missed by my family and I will always remember how kind and loving she was.

Dianna
Your Mom, as you know, was my RN mentor and dear friend. Having both of you as part of our family for many years was very special. Dianna you provided a peaceful place with love and care for your Mom so that she could move on to heaven from her home. I will always cherish the memories I have of your Mom and you. We still have the pictures of that special little girl that John accompanied to the pageant. With love and gratitude for the memories of both of you. Nora Laughlin

Dear Dianna and family, I am so sorry for your loss but heaven is rejoicing! I pray that the Lord will bless you in many new and unexpected ways during this most difficult time. She was one of my best friends. Sue and I shared the same faith and I know that one day we will be reunited once again. She was a great mother. She was pretty much great at everything. I learned a lot from her and I will never forget her.
