I am Evelyn’s Granddaughter and she was the best Grandmother. She was tough when she had to be and loving all the time. She never judged anyone for their mistakes or made you feel bad about them. She was always worried about all her family and cried a lot about all her grandchildren and great-grands too. She loved so much that toward the end of her life, she would cry just trying to explain how much she loved each and everyone of our family members. I love her so much and miss her. I wish I would have spent more time with her but I will cherish all the moments we did have together. I will miss her cry, her laugh, and her big smile.
Mrs. R. Faust
To Mrs. Florence’s family, she touched many lives and will be thought of often. May your many memories of life with her bring you comfort to share with each other during this special time. May you also have the peace and comfort offered by our Heavenly Father Jehovah as promised by his son and our savior, Jesus Christ.
