Evelina Walker Obituary

Evelina M. Walker, 83, departed this life on November 27, 2016 after a long battle with Alzheimer's disease. Born June 8, 1933 in Fayette County, West Virginia, she attended Creighton High School, West Virginia and Marion Business College, Marion, Ohio. She held two degrees in Accounting and Business Administration.

Evelina was preceded in death by her infant son, Walter; her parents James and Rachel Persinger; her brother James Persinger and her sister Patricia Ringle.

Evelina is survived by her sister Betty Pomeroy of Berlin Heights, Ohio; her children Curt, Becky, and Ray Walker all of St. Cloud, Florida; two grandsons Zach and Andrew Walker; granddaughter Christina Hockaday and great grandson Ben Hackert; nieces Lynn, Bev and Susan Pomeroy, Anna Ringle and Didane Lasch; nephews Lee Ringle, Jr, Leory Ringle and Jim and Paul Persinger.

A memorial Service will be held at Osceola Memory Gardens, St. Cloud, Florida. In lieu of flowers, please consider a donation to the Central Florida Children's Home, 12569 Narcoossee Road, Orlando, FL 32832.

She was an avid children's advocate, totally selfless and had tremendous faith in the Lord. She will truly be missed. In the hearts of those she touched, nothing loved is ever lost, and she was loved so much.

At last she has her reward. At last she can walk and laugh again...
