Print Obituary & Condolences



There was only one Evelyn and I know she will be missed by many. Words cannot express how much her family appreciates the friendship and kindness shown to Evelyn by her great circle of friends there. Audrey and Mark, a special “Thank You” to both of you. I know thanks are not necessary when you are caring for a friend, but you both have gone above and beyond in caring for Evelyn. Becky, I know Evelyn loved the time you were able to spend with her, even if it was never frequent enough to suit her! I am sure the bells of Heaven are ringing to welcome home Evelyn, and I am sure she sent word ahead as to what tune they should be playing! Rest well Evelyn, you will be missed.
Evelyn and I had many conversations about her family, her life, church and our Heavenly Father.
I met Evelyn thru Sunflower Health Care ( Hospice) 3 0r 4 years ago.
I would pick Evelyn up on Thursday mornings and take her to The Hair Room, where she had her hair done weekly.
Many times we would go to breakfast or lunch.
I will miss her. May God bless you all the family and give you strength at this time.
