Dear Evelyn,
It seems like yesterday that you came into our lives. You were our little angel that was sent here to help us raise 2 beautiful little boys. You brought so much love and happiness into our home and we are heart broken. You are our adopted grandmother and we loved when you would come over and help us with projects, homework, and reading. The boys also loved for you to watch them play sports and swim. You were a bright spot in our life and we will never forget all of the wonderful things that you did for all of us. We were touched by your positive attitude and kind heart and all of the great memories that we have will live on forever. We miss you so much and will keep you close in our hearts forever.
We Love You!
Patrick, Sherry, Griff and Jake

Evelyn was our beloved babysitter for nine years. When I asked her if she could handle newborn twins, she replied “Well I’ve taken care of 25 at a time in the nursery.” She was the best rock-a-bye babysitter that there ever was. She loved on our children as if they were her own. She will be remembered warmly in our hearts forever and she will be missed tremendously.
Gary, Susie, Alex and Haley

Evelyn babisat for me before, and she was a lovely lady. I spoke with her on the phone at her regular babistting job most often when I was calling my friend Sherry. She was always cheerful and upbeat and always remembered me with warmth in her voice. She was a gem, a loving lady and a class act. She will be sorely missed.
With Love
Debi Kellermann and family
