Our thoughts and prayers are with your family on Evelyn's passing from this earth. She was always the epitome of a lady. I first met Evelyn when she took me back and forth to International Village where we both worked. Her stories were much appreciated and I felt very fortunate to have spent the time with her that summer. May your memories of Evelyn get you through the next couple of days and months. Rest in Peace Evelyn. Love, Sharon & Dolores Byron
