Ms. Evelyn was one of the first people I met at the courthouse 29 years ago. She always had a kind word and a wonderful smile. How she loved to talk of her family!

You are in my thoughts and prayers.

I knew Evelyn when she worked at Pee Dee Productive and other places and thought she was such a fine woman.
