My deepest condolences to the family of Mrs. Evon. She was such a kind and caring person who took wonderful care of my daughter Nuri while I worked during the day. Mrs. Evon loved her some Nuri., that was her girl... I will always be grateful for the love, care, and kindness she showed to my little family. May God comfort the family during this difficult time and give you peace and strength. 🙏🏽❤️

Aunt Evon I was truly saddened to hear of your passing. I am so glad I got to see you last summer. I didn't get to get some of your dressing but I did get to see your beautiful face.

I will miss our phone conversations that we had. Sometimes it would take a while for me to reach you, but when I did we did our catching up. Thanks for sharing your dressing recipe with me. I will be trying it and won't forget my cranberry sauce.

Give Mom a hug from me. Until we meet on the other side. I love you. Evon & Ginger Dell together....❤️

Your niece Regina Burch Spencer

To my mom, I will always hold you close to my heart. There are no words to express how deeply this hurts. I can only pray that I can stay strong and smile when thoughts of you flood my mind. No one is ever prepared for this type of hurt, this type of loss but I know you would want us to keep pushing. I'm happy that you were able to meet your great grands and have beautiful relationships with them. We will honor you and lift your name and rejoice. My God, please look after my mom and all your children. I know our God never makes mistakes and it was her time. Thank you Lord for giving us our time with her. We give you all the Glory and the Praise. Amen Love your daughter, Nikki
