Evelyn was born and raised in Mackinaw City and moved to Mason in 1964. She married her husband Robert in 1955. She was kept busy raising her four daughters and welcomed foster children into her home.
Evelyn baked her way into the hearts of everyone she met. She was known for her cakes, wedding cakes, coffee cakes, muffins and, of course, her sugar cookies. If you ever visited Evelyn’s house you could always find a sweet treat to sneak. In addition to baking, sewing brought Evelyn immense joy. She was known for creating many beautiful pieces, most notably her Christmas tree skirts and quilts which will be enjoyed for generations to come.
