Dear Allison, Macey and Rob,
My words can not describe what an amazing lady your Mother was, absolutely beautiful inside and out!. Many will learn from her strength and great faith, and this includes myself. May your sorrow and tears soon turn to joy as you remember all the wonderful memories you all shared. God Bless you all💕
Psalms 116:15
Precious in the sight of the Lord is the death of his saints.

My heart is breaking for you. You were surely blessed with an amazing mom and from knowing you, you must have truly learned some rare wisdoms from her along the way. We lean not on our own understanding but rely on God.) proverbs 3:5) when things like this happen. Love is hard to describe but we look to Jesus for all our comforts annd bask in his examples of grace.

I lost my mom when I was 18 and I can tell you that it’s not going to be easy to adjust without her. She got to know each of you three kids in time of need and you can be proud of that for the rest of your lives. By being good kids and good mothers, you will be honoring her everyday. Thanks for listing both your late grandpa and your wonderful grandma Murph in her obituary. I consider them two if our closest friends. Your mom is listening to one of Bobs stories probably right now in heaven. With Gods help, you will all get this rough spot, god bless the Evans family. You’re in our prayers.

What an incredible tribute to your mom - it certainly gives me such a wonderful picture of who she was, although I didn't personally know her. And you are so right - she left you the best gift... a foundation of faith for generations to come! Continuing to pray for your family.

Thank you for sharing your beautiful tribute to your lovely mom. What an inspiring woman! Continuing to hold you all close in thoughts and prayers! ❤️

Beautiful testament about a wonderful woman. I can’t imagine how hard it is to not have her physical self with all of you. Her spirit will never be forgotten. You are an amazing family. Thank you all for sharing your Mom with us. Keeping all of you in my prayers.❤️
