    I am so sorry to hear this news about Evanglene. She was a very sweet person. I remember her from school, we had some classes together and we would pick on each other she always had something good to say about people, never judgmental. We lost contact through the years but I remember her as always being nice. I know she is now resting peacefully in the arms of our savior. My thoughts and prayers are with Evanglene and her family during this sad time.
