My deepest condolences to the whole families of all my cousins and their extended families. Our thoughts and prayers are with you all at this difficult time. It is difficult because we will all miss the light Aunt Ev gave to the world when she was here, but also happy because we all know she is in heaven now. Thankful for the many times, we got out to see her and for all she gave to me when I was growing up!

I met Evelyn in 1986 while working at the Runnymede Chronic Care Hospital and again at The Church of the Advent. Although I moved away, we continued our friendship either by phone or by letters. Her hand written letters were always newsy and filled with so much love and kindness. I will always treasure her friendship. To Evelyn's family and friends, please know you are in my thoughts and prayers at this sad time.
