Dear Beth, Your family was under the ministry of my parents, Rev. Luman & Gilda Evans at Immanuel BC. Your parents were also friends with the parents of my wife Darla - Voyd & Beulah Palmer. We regret having lost contact with each other, but in Jesus there is no loss of love. We share in your loss and grief, and embrace you and yours in love.

She was such a wonderful lady and friend. She would give you the shirt off her back if you needed it. She loved her family more than anything in the world. I will miss her so much! You are now a angel my friend

Meme was someone you never forget. I remember how welcoming she always was, she was always there for you no matter the reason. She truly cared about everyone and would always put others needs before her own.
Life wasn't always the easiest but she made sure others lives were as easy as they could be. Its hard to find someone nowadays that truly is there for you, she was that person for so many, she was that person for all of us.
Everyone who had the opportunity to meet her felt the same way. To her last moments she maintained the same positive outlook and compassionate demeanor.
Even though our time was cut short, the 21 years I was blessed to know her were filled with moments that won't be forgotten. She was a second mother to me, a friend and someone who would always give you an unbiased ear to listen and shoulder to lean on.
Til we meet again MeMe. Rest in peace....
