I just learned of Evy going to be with the Lord. Even though we had not connected since she was a child, we were email buddies. I knew she had a deep faith and love of the Lord. I'm sure that her light was evident to those around her... and that she prayed for others to know Jesus as she did.

May you, Doug, Ryan, all of her children, grandchildren, siblings, and mother - find comfort in knowing she is in Heaven waiting for us to meet her joyfully one day.

So young to have been taken, but so blessed we are who knew her.

Love,
Aunt Susie, Uncle Ray and Family
