Mrs. Graybill was a true Christian Lady that loved her God and her family with all her heart. Her love is reflected in her family and will live on until they are all reunited again with our Lord Jesus Christ. Thankyou for all the memories and good times. You will be missed !

Larry, we were so sorry to hear of Aunt Evelyn's passing. I have fond memories of both her and Uncle Bill when they would come to Arkansas to visit, and I loved her very much. I will not be able to attend the service on Wednesday, but my thoughts and prayers are with all of you.

My husband Bill and I lived down the street (Woodland Bluff) from the Graybills in Heber Springs in the late 70s. Our basset hound, Buttercup, always got out and went to their house and Evelyn would call me. She was alway so gracious and beautiful coiffed, no matter the time of day. We also attended the same church. I have fond memories of both Bill and Evelyn. I did not know, until I read the obituary this morning, that we had a Concord connection, too. I attended church ( and school) there and remember Mrs Helen as my primary Sunday school teacher and Mr Dell as the church song leader at Concord 1st Baptist; and of course their cafe. Wonderful memories. We offer our sincere condolences.
