    Jan and family, just read of you mothers passing and so sorry. She always had a smile on her face and was a beautiful lady. Loosing them is hard, but someday soon we all will be reunited with our loved ones, Love you Kent, Louise and Jason

    A beautiful legend has passed. This beautiful lady will forever be my aunt. I had a ‘crush’ on her from the day I met her. My heart and condolences go out to all of her family. We have lost a treasure.

    We were sorry to hear that Evelyne had passed away. I saw her one time when I was down at Saline Care and I think she remembered me. She was a sweet lady. You have our sympathy.
