I really miss this loving beautiful lady. Not only was she my mom and she was my friend and after being her care taker for so long I have a terrible void in my heart. I want to pick up the phone and check on her……
I know she is in a much happier place now and she has no pain and suffering. She is with all of her crazy animals, her parents brother and son in law and many of her friends that have gone before her. I miss her and love her still to this day and always will. I love you mom and miss you to the moon and back.

Jane although I have only known you for a short period of time, it has always been apparent that you cherished every moment with your mother. It is very difficult when our mothers are no longer with us on earth, but they remain in our hearts. My condolences to you and your extended family!!!!!

What a precious, compassionate, big hearted and beautiful woman Evelyn was. She always had a smile and a happy greeting when she seen you, along with a big warm hug. She was genuine and loved her animals but loved her family more. We would often be at family gatherings together, over the years and boy, was she ever so proud of her family! Gentle souls like hers are not often encountered but with Evelyn you knew you mattered, that you were important and that her prized possessions in life was her animals and family. “Grandma Rabbit” as she was lovingly referred by, was loved by many and will surely be missed by all that were lucky enough to have ventured into her journey of life. She leaves behind many, many happy memories for all that loved her but she is now free from the pain and struggle. She has joined her lost loved ones, yet again, to watch over her family and friends from up above. I am blessed to have known Evelyn and her amazing family and I will cherish all the happy times, talks and celebrations we had together. Rest in Heaven, sweet angel.
