Evelyn was born on October 10, 1925, in Valdosta, Georgia. Her family moved to Orlando, Florida where she graduated from high school. She married Bill and moved to Richmond, Virginia. After Bill’s death, she married Gerry and remained in Richmond. Evelyn was a long-term employee with Union Envelope Company in Richmond where she served as President of the local union and retired as a Docket Clerk. As a mom, Evelyn enjoyed taking her family to Florida for yearly family vacations. Later in life, her children enjoyed taking her on yearly birthday trips to locations such as New York City, Las Vegas, and Miami. Evelyn was a kind and loving daughter, sister, mother, and grandmother and will be greatly missed by her family.
The family is grateful for the wonderful care provided by her long-time primary provider, Phyllis Petrohovich and more recently the loving care provided by Rosa Robinson.
