Condolences
Dear Dave and family,
I was so sorry to learn about the loss of your lovely mother from my own mother, just this evening. Somehow this news was not relayed to me until after her service. I have memories of Evelyn–both of your parents, actually–that go all the way back through my childhood, beginning with church-related events, through her presence at school and beyond. She was a gracious, kind person, and I’m sure she will be missed by all of you. Patty Mack
Dave Our condolences go out to you and your family on your loss. Our prayers are with you.

I was saddened to read of the loss of Evelyn. She was a lovely person and one of my favorite people during my High School years. I have many great memories of working as one of her helpers in the school office. My thoughts and prayers are with all of you at this difficult time.
Dave, Maryanne, Lace and Ellie, Our thoughts and prayers are with you at this sad time. I enjoyed her so much at the get-togethers that you invited us to. I could tell she was a wonderful person who was very much loved by her family. Wish I could have spent more time with her at future events. But, sadly, that is not ment to be. God Bless you all.
