Dear Paul and children,
I have been thinking of you all so much as you approach the first year since Evie left you. My prayers are with you.

Dear Paul, Ciera, Meleia, Colton and Rohan,

Words can not begin to tell you how sorry we are for your loss. We just found out today of Evie's passing, and were deeply saddened by the news. We have missed your family very much, and remember fondly our times with Evie. It seems so long ago when we were last in Colorado Springs, yet we vividly remember all of the wonderful times we spent together. We will be praying for your family.

Love, Bill, Robin, Ryan, Justin and Rachel Eberle

I read Evie's xanga blog and often thought of her and her struggle. I was amazed at how strong she was and wise beyond her years. I wish that I could have known her in "real life" and now realize that she lived not far from me and our paths may have crossed. My thoughts and prayers go out to all of her family and friends during this most difficult of times.

Hello Paul and children,
I remember meeting your mother/wife for the first time when she was a tiny baby. This was June or July of 1970. I was with Project Italy and we went to Germany for the Christian Military Lectureship. Jan, Jeff and their new bundle of joy had traveled from Nernburg to Frankfort. I met Jan, Jeff and Evie for the first time. I was excited to meet them because I had heard so much about them. The project girls gave a baby shower for Evie. She received so many cute and precious outfits. Jan had her decked out in all her new clothes. The project kids also collected money so Grandmother Lavender could go visit her first grandchild. I remember the surprised look on her face when Grandpa Lavender told her what the project kids had done and that she was to fly to Germany to see Evie. She was so happy and excited that tears came to her eyes and of coarse she came back beaming from ear to ear.
She also came back with lots of pictures of her gift from above.
We were all so happy for her. Of coarse your Grandpa Lavender was lost without Mama. He was very delighted to say the least about having Mama back with him. I saw
Evie many times after that as she grew from a precious little baby to a toddler then to a little girl and a big girl. When she was about four, I lived with your grandparents
to take some science classes at the same college your Grandpa Shoemaker was attending. Evie was a delightful ,happy, and entertaining little girl. I didn't see her as much as she grew older. In 2005 my sister and I came to visit Jan and Jeff.
All of your family came to Littleton
to celebrate Cieria's birthday.
We were so excited to meet all of you. I know you must dearly miss her. I also know you have many fond memories of her. God bless all of you. We love you all and will continue to pray for you. An old friend of your grandparents. Mary

We will remember Evie as a young, ambitious, and energetic Christian who was beautiful inside and out. Thankfully, her suffering has ended although she will be missed on this earth. Our hearts and prayers are with the family as they accept this great loss. May God send His blessings of abiding peace, comfort, and the will to continue on. That's what Evie would have wanted for her loved ones.

My first memory of Evie is seeing that little dark-haired girl sitting on the front seat between Bob and Janell and ultimately watching her grow into a beautiful young lady and attending her wedding some years later. I remember how she and David helped Jason make the transition from a small country school to a private school in the city. What a blessing they were. The last time I saw Evie was at Glen's memorial service; and she was, of course, showing us pictures of her home and children. As I have gone back and re-read the emails from Jan, as well as Evie's blog, I am amazed even more as to her strength, courage and faith throughout her ordeal. I have printed her scripture, II Timothy 1:7 and read it every day to honor her life.

Precious memories, how they linger, how they ever flood my soul . . .

Love to Paul, the children, and the Shoemakers,

Beverly and Jason Lancaster

Mary Jane Lavender

October 31, 2007

My first memory of Evie was how excited her Grandmother Edith was to see her for the first time in June, about a month after she was born. Edith boarded a train for Germany from Italy. When she returned, she beamed as she talked about her new granddaughter and how beautiful she was!

Evie and her brother,David, were so caring of others. They both shared whatever they had with those in need. A generous and grateful heart are great gifts.

Ciera, Meleia, Colton, Rohan, continue to love God and your neighbor, help each other and honor your Dad. You have wonderful loving, caring, God fearing parents who love you very much. You have a wonderful heritage of family on both sides who love you more than you know.

God Bless,

Grandmamma Lavender

Fisher family,
We were all so blessed to share in the celebration of the life of your mother and wife. We are all saddened by her loss and know you miss her so much, but how blessed we were to have her as a gift from God. We pray for your faith and strength as you carry on her faith and legacy. We love you.

Nancy O'Neal

October 30, 2007

My memories of Evie begin with a tiny little 3-month-old bundle of energy. She was the first grandchild on both sides, and what magic she brought into the Lavender and Shoemaker families! She was a loving, beautiful child and it was a delight to watch her grow into a lovely woman.

I've enjoyed getting to know Paul and the children better in recent months, as we all loved Evie together. What a strong warrior and woman of God she was!

Paul, Ciera, Meleia, Colton, and Rohan; thank you for sharing Evie with so many of us that loved her.
She lives on through each of you and I look forward to spending more time with you.

Love, Aunt Nancy

October 30, 2007

Fisher Family:

You have no idea what an impact your wife/mom has made on so many people. The impact she made on me over the years is huge.
When our surprise baby Aiden was born May 25, 2007, Evie spearheaded an online babyshower. Here she did not feel good, but took it upon herself to do so. She did it with out even thinking.
I miss sending her photos. I pray she is watching Aiden grow up and she can see how big he is getting. I miss seeing updates on all of you. I miss seeing her cheerful posts and smiling face.
I am not sure what surprised/shocked me more, Aiden being born, or Evie passing. I know she is in a better place and there isn't a day I do not think of her.

I hope and pray you all are hanging in there. I really miss the family updates.

Love,
The Spence Family

Dear Fisher and Shoemaker family,

The memorial service in Nashville was beautiful. Such a wonderful celebration of a wonderful life. I am praying for you all daily and hope that God is giving you all the comfort only he is able to supply.

It was so nice to meet the family, and the service made such an impression on my son that a few days later we heard "Legacy" on the radio and he got all excited and told me that was my friend, Miss Evie! I will always remember her, and can't wait to see her face to face when I get home.

Bill and Suzette Parker

October 28, 2007

Dear Paul and Children,

It's been almost a month since Evie's passing and it still doesn't seem real - it seems Evie should be out there somewhere doing "her thing." If it seems that difficult for us to believe, we can't comprehend how difficult it must be for you. We are so blessed, however, that we had those special years together in Life Group - to share so much (the ups as well as some downs.) What special memories we take with us of a beautiful, Christian family and a mother whose joy showed in everything she did. In time, maybe those precious memories will help see you through. We believe God shared her with us as long as he could and now he's ready to have her to himself again. Can't you picture it? Just singing her heart out!

Please know that our hearts are with you all and that we're just a call away for anything you need.

Amy Hulen

October 28, 2007

I've tried to write this numerous times and there are just no adequate words which can fully describe the hole left in the universe now. Evie was such a tiny little human being who made such a HUGE impact on this world in her short life. She was my dear, precious friend and the sister of my heart. She was my family as surely as it we shared the same biology.

Paul, Ciera, Mimi, Colton & Roey, my heart deeply aches for your loss. You will continue to be in my prayers as you struggle to learn to live everyday with your precious wife and mom. Know beyond a shadow of a doubt that you are loved and lifted up in prayer!

Mr. Jeff, Mrs. Jan, & David, you will be forever in my heart and prayers. I simply can't imagine the massive hole left in your lives having known and loved Evie longer than any of the rest of us. I love you all dearly!

Paul & Laroletta Petty

October 26, 2007

Our hearts were deeply touched as we sat in the memorial service for Evie. We could not help but think about God's statement that He knows the plans He has for us. Those plans are for however long He gives us life on this earth. But more importantly, perhaps, the plans He has for those left to carry on. Our desire, after the fact, is that we could have spent more time with your family before Evie's illness. But for all of us, time was spent with family in other ways. But we do want each of you to know that Evie was a n example of a life of faith to emulate and seek after. To love and obey our Lord to the very end and to not fear death is remarkable. I will always choose her example as solace in times of earthly trial. Please know your family is lifted up in my prayers as you seek God's direction in your lives.Indeed, He knows the plans He has for you too.
Lovingly,

Kenneth Gaipa

To Evie's family,It is difficult to find words to express when someone who is so loved and cherished is taken from this world much too early. However, there is comfort in knowing that Evie rests peaceful in God's loving arms and we all know, in her short time, she touched everyone who crossed her path in life. It is nice to know people like Evie who made a difference in this world because of her smile, warmth, compassion and humanity. That is the hope that we all have when it is time to go home.

Kristin (Maloney) Duckworth

October 23, 2007

Ciera, Meleia, Colton and Rohan, I'm sending you hugs from here. Your mom was a wonderful lady, and she loved you with her whole heart. I know she's proud of who each of you are, and will become, and there will be a great reunion one day in our Father's House. My prayers are with you all.

Fisher and Shoemaker family,
Evie was such a wonderful person; caring, loving and thoughtful. Her legacy is the love of Christ that she showed to all who came in contact with her. I can't wait to see her again when I look for her at the middle south gate!

Paul Hollenbeck and Family

October 19, 2007

To Evie's Family-
Words are so difficult to come by that do justice to her life lived and for condolences to you her family and loved ones. Our family had the pleasure of knowing Evie through the AWANA program at WVC where she was a leader for our youngest daughter, and then through work at the CDOC and over the last couple of years at the Gathering. Evie was the expression of life to the kids she worked with, through her work, through all that she gave to those she touched. She will be dearly missed, but never more than by her family. Paul, my heart goes out to you and the kids and ask for God's protection of each of your hearts. God Bless and keep you.

Jan and Jeff,
Although I never met Evie personally, I felt I knew her through you, Jan. You are such a wonderful person, and with all I've heard about Evie, you and Jeff did a wonderful job raising her. It shows with all of her accomplishments and all the love that is out there for her. My deepest sympathy goes out to you. Though I have not personally lost a child, my sister did, and I can feel your sorrow, going through it with her. You are in my thoughts and prayers.

I love you all so much, and you will be in my thoughts and prayers. To the Fisher girls, if you need anything I am here for you. I love you!

Bradley Kinney

October 18, 2007

While I didn't know her as more than a co-worker, Evie was one of the sweetest, most honest and most helpful persons I have EVER had the privilege to work with in my 53 years of life. She had the sweetest, most humorous and pleasant personalities anyone ever has had the pleasure to experience and it is MY pleasure to count myself as one of those. I grieve myself, but can't imagine the loss of her close friends and those in her family. God Bless you and yours. Bradley Kinney

Karen Russell

To all of Evie's family,

Evie was a coworker at DOC and my supervisor while I was there. She always took the time to help anyone who needed it and was especially kind and patient. Most of all she loved her family, and I felt I knew you a little myself from the stories she related. She loved and respected her parents, was so proud of David's military service and great sense of humor and found joy in daily events with Paul and the children. God bless you all.

Dana Bustos

October 18, 2007

What a loving gentle spirit Evie was. She really embodied the concept of people as spiritual beings having a human experience. She was well loved, and the world is a little darker without her.

I didn't know Evie personally, but I knew of her through my good friend Dennis Phillips- who met Evie and her family when he was going to school in CO. Evie's love, compassion and outlook on life will live on through her family and friends. I felt like I knew her even though I never was able to meet her in person. I know she is in heaven watching down on her beautiful family. My love and prayers are with all the people that loved her. :)

We didn't know her personally but her father, Jeff, is a business associate of ours and a kind and dear friend as well. Our thoughts and prayers go out to you, Jeff, and your family during this time. We saw the love and admiration of your daughter in your eyes just days before her passing when you spoke about her strength and conviction.

I met Evie through our work together with the Department of Corrections. It can't be repeated enough what a joy she was to be around. We went on a white water rafting trip together and I have the most fantastic picture of her in the raft with all of us, laughing with glee. I will treasure that picture and always remember her as this vibrant, wonderful woman. She is dearly missed.

October 17, 2007

Evie,
Thank you for allowing me to sit by your bed for 6 days and talk and laugh non-stop! I'll never forget looking at Pike's Peak with you one last time when the EMTs let us sit outside before they took you into the hospice. It is hard to believe that we were laughing 'til we cried just 3 weeks ago. You were the best big sister, and you and Paul gave me some great nieces and nephews! Things will never be the same, but we'll keep laughing and loving like you would want.

Love, Your Baby Brother

Jan Shoemaker, Evie's mom, was my best friend in high school. I got to meet Evie when she was a beautiful, tiny baby in Nashville--she was such a joy and her mommy was so happy with her. I watched Evie grow into a beautiful young woman, mother and wife only through pictures. My heart is so heavy for all of you and my prayers and love go out to each one.

Love, Tammy Marshall Edwards

October 17, 2007

To Evie's Family,
My deepest sympathy for your loss. I worked with Evie at DOC while in a UCCS graduate program from 2001-2003. She was incredibly helpful to me and so cheerful. What left the biggest impression was her love and dedication to her children. She was so proud of you! My thoughts are with you in what must be a very difficult time.

Holly Lavender

October 17, 2007

Evie,
What a treasure you must be in the eyes of God! Such great faith, a sweet and selfless spirit, you amaze us all in how strong you are no matter the circumstances. I've known you since you were ten years old and now you have your own children. Your family is in our prayers. Love, Aunt Holly

Rebecca Lavender

October 17, 2007

I was blessed to have Evie as a flower girl in our wedding and privileged to know her as an adult and friend. Her strength, faith, and courage inspire me still. I'll miss her wonderful, quirky sense of humor! Evie left her thumb print on four amazing children.
Love you all,
Aunt Rebecca

Teresa Fagan

October 17, 2007

I will always treasure the brief time I was able to spend with Evie, the good hug we shared, our laughter and tears over our experiences with teenage daughters! She was one of the strongest people I've ever had the privilege to know. My heart and love go out to her entire family.

Beth & Jim Klingensmith

October 17, 2007

Evie was a bright light, a shining star. Jim and I will miss her smile and upbeat attitude. God has given us our memories of her to help us with our loss, and we will pray for the families.

Terri Lawson

October 17, 2007

To Evie's loving family: I was fortunate to know Evie in her childhood and teen years. She was a joy to spend time with and such fun to be around! Even as a teenager she was proud of her family and freely expressed her love and affection for Jan, Jeff, and even "little" brother David. It is clear she was able to continue her heartfelt expressions of love with Paul and her children, as well as her parents, brother, and other loved ones throughout her life. I continue to be blessed by my relationship with the Shoemaker family. May your wonderful memories of Evie and your love for one another comfort you in your grief.

Tim Lavender

October 17, 2007

Dear Family,
This is Uncle Tim. I have known Evie all of her life and she was always sweet as sugar. I really enjoyed her as a small child, was proud of her in her school years, and amazed at what a wonder mother she became. Her memorial service was just perfect in Nashville. We loved her and love you all, always.
Uncle, TIM

Brenda Noble

October 17, 2007

To all of Evie's cherished family: You are, and will continue to be in my thoughts and prayers. The one thing that always struck me about Evie was her pride in and devotion to her family. She used to send emails with current pictures of the kids to us here at work - she glowed when she talked about her kids! She was a wonderful light, and will be sorely missed.

Carole Wilds

October 17, 2007

What can I say that hasn't already been said? Evie was an extraordinary person...the light of God shone through her in such an amazing way. Even in sickness, her selfnessness and love was pervasive. And she continues to touch people's lives! A remarkable woman with four remarkable children who will no doubt continue where Evie left off. My love and prayers to Paul, the children, David, and Jan and Jeff.

Although we were not physically close, Evie and her family were a very important part of my life experience. She was always loving and seemed very anchored in her life here. I don't know how to accept her suffering; but I know she was strong for those around her through it all. I will accept the good memories of her and will grieve her loss.

You have been a great blessing to so many. Well done! Your victory is the one for which all of us yearn.

Thank you for your wonderful example of generous giving to all you knew and even those you didn't know.

Dearest Evie, you will always be the cool older cousin and I consider every memory I have an honor. I am humbled by the selflessness and kindness that I always observed from you - what a wonderful example you were for the rest of us rugrats that came up behind you. I always knew you were there - if I needed you, you would be there - I took that forgranted. I will miss you Evie.
Paul, Ciera, Meleia, Colton, Rohan, Aunt Jan, Uncle Jeff, and David - I wish I could be there with you. I love you all so dearly & will hold you up in prayer constantly. May the Lord bless you & keep the happy memories vividly in your mind.
All my love, elsa (from China)

Paul,
We only got to meet you and Evie a few times, but you two meant so much to my folks. One of my favorite memories will alway be Ciera and Meleia rearranging Mother's funeral flowers at the house in Westminster.

May God give you, Ciera, Meleia, Colton and Rohan comfort and precious memories of the days you had Evie.

Dearl Paul - I am aching for you and your loss. Evie was a wonderful friend, she was a "prayer partner" for one of my children and really prayed us both through some very difficult times. She was also there for me when one of my children died. I count her as a dear sister in the Lord and I am heartbroken about your loss. You and your precious children are in my prayers, and my children and husband and I will lift you up continuously. Thank you for generously sharing your wife with her friends, including me, all these years. I hope that the stories of the hope and joy and comfort and blessing she brought to so many others will bring you comfort at this time. With much love in Christ, Sue Badeau

Evie was SUCH an isnpiration to me, as well as so many others. I never had to opportunity to meet her, but for as long as I've posted with her on message boards, and been a member of Xanga, I felt I grew to know her better as a person. The LOVE she had for her family, friends and people she never had the chance of getting to meet was amazing. She was a kindered spirit, and will be greatly missed! Many hugs and prayers to Paul, the kids, as well as the rest of her family and friends. R.I.P Evie! I love and miss you friend.

I love Evie dearly and will miss her greatly. I still see her as the little cousin visiting the farm wanting to make all the animals her pets! I'll see you all in Nashville. Much love,

Evie was an amazing person - and she was a much loved daughter, a cherished wife, and a loving mother, as well as a friend to all. She'll be missed by so many. I had the pleasure of meeting her twice, and only wish everyone else that she had touched online had been able to do the same.
