Evelyn trained as a cadet nurse for the U.S. Army. She delivered healthcare at the former Deaconess Hospital and BF Goodrich in Independence, Ohio. She loved to spend time with her family. Evelyn enjoyed sewing projects, especially counted cross stitch, and reading poetry brought her great joy. Pinochle was her card game and Nate was her favorite partner. She learned to play golf and could be found on the golf course with her husband. She had a very engaging personality which will be missed by all who knew her.
