We were very blessed to have met Evelyn through one of her children, Jane Current. She was a kind, fascinating, intelligent woman. She and Ray raised a wonderful family and she will live on in all her children. You can see a little bit of her in every one of them. We will miss her and her smile and her laugh. Rest in peace Evelyn. We love you.
