Breaks my heart.
A wonderful lady – prayers for comfort and peace.
I am sorry for your loss. I was fortunate to be teaching at the elementary school when Evelyn was in charge of the cafeteria. She always made something special and delicious for us teachers on Fridays. She always had a smile on her face!
I would like to express my sympathy to the family of Evelyn Bormann. What a wonderful lady. I knew her and Melvin for many years, but a long time ago. Both were members of the German American Society.

Evelyn was like a second mom when I was growing up. She put up with a lot of shenanigans. I know she will be missed. Prayers for peace and comfort for her family.
Our sincere condolences Brenda, to you and your family. Everything said about your mom is so true plus so much more! She was genuinely a great woman.
Sending you all our love, hugs and prayers for your comfort. Your Barbarossa friends and neighbors, Felipe and Helen (Martinez) Hernandez.
