    John and family,
    I am so very sorry to hear of Evelynโ€™s passing. She was so friendly, and easy to talk to. I really enjoyed her sense of humour, and appreciated her kindness. Our kids really loved her too! She would often bring over little treats for them, when we were in town visiting my parents. She was a great neighbour and friend to my parents, especially spending time with mom in her later years. We will all miss her warm presence very much
    Kathy and Joe and family

    Jody, I am so sorry for your loss. Loved ones lost too early is simply unfair – cherish all the memories you have from the years you spent together, living life to the fullest. xoxo
