To Evelyn someone who added joy, happiness, support and pure kindness to my family and me. I called you Mom because you were all the things a Mother should be. You laughed and had such a keen wit that each conversation was memorable and left me wanting more of you. You will fill the heavens with the joy and laughter. Now your home with Him all the family who have passed before you. May you rest in the Peace of the Lord. Now onto a new purpose, as an Angel in heaven as you were on this earth. I will miss you. Love you Donna

It is with sadness I read the obituary of Evelyn this morning.It was in 1963 I met Evelyn and the whole family Streed at their farm across from our new house in GreenMeadow As newly immigrants we stared a beautiful friendship with the family Streed.The whole family welcomed us with open arms.Maybe because my best friend Daisy in Sweden was a cousin to them!!
I had a special bond with them and Christmas cards over a long time.Last connection was Christmas 2022.I have followed the family over the years .It is a beautiful Keepsake see Thanks Martha ,Chrissi and Jennifer Kjerstin

I knew Evelyn and Carl from the Cherry Hill Baptist Church days. They were always doing the Lords work, They were Spiritual giants to me and I learned so much from their teaching, marriage and life. Certainly a life lived out for the Lord Jesus Christ in every way. Heaven has gained a true disciple of Christ and I can only imagine the party in heaven when she arrived. We shall meet again Evelyn in God’s eternal heaven.
