Evelyn also donated her time to the civil air patrol in Grand Junction, CO, and was on a bowling league which she very much enjoyed. She was a very hard worker who was very dedicated to raising her four daughters on her own. She was a very devoted grandmother, and always had something, especially candy to hand out to her grandkids. Nobody ever went hungry at her table; she was an awesome cook.
