Wow! I am shocked about this. Just found out today by visiting the site. Evelyn and I worked for several years together at Roller McNutt Funeral Home. She was good at her job and was a good friend to me. We would get together and sew, cook, clean and just hang out. Shopped a lot. She will be missed even more. I send condolences to her family and many friends.

What a talented and amazing person. Evelyn was amazing at all the things she could do. She was a great cook, a good organizer and a wonderful co-worker and helper to me.
She did an excellent job in the position as a Regional Bookkeeper.
She was my friend. It's still difficult to believe she is gone.
Donna, David and Gene, my heart reaches out to you and you are in my thoughts and prayers.
God Bless bless and comfort you in your time of loss.

My heart felt sympathy for the loss of such a wonderful person. Evelyn was one of a kind. Her willingness to share her friendship and talents with some many. She was truly the "First Lady" of Armstead Mtn Deer Club.

I couldn't have picked a better step mother! Evelyn could do anything she put her mind to, sew, knit, bowl, ride horses, played piano & banjo. She was also a great cook! She taught my sister, Dana and I how to sew and cook different types of dishes. We have many happy memories of time spent with her.
She will always have a special place in my heart!
Hugs and prayers to the family! I love ya'll!
