I have so many wonderful and cherished memories of Mom and Dad. Mom could knit a beautiful sweater, cook a delicious meal and not to forget, bake the most scrumptious Christmas cookies (as only Mom could)! God has gained a talented and beautiful soul. I am grateful to have the privilege of knowing and loving her.
My memories of Evelyn, first cousin of my mother Evelyn ( Wellin) Silver, are mostly from my childhood. I remember her warmth and how welcomed and comfortable I felt in her presence. She has always been special to me, and will always remain so.
May her memory be a blessing.
With love and condolences to her children, grandchildren and great grandchildren.
