God has taken to be with him, a kind, sweet, beautiful angel that he placed here on earth, to share her compassion and giving heart towards others. She will be tremendously missed. She gave so freely of herself. May God continue to bless and heal the family as we go through this difficult time.
Cousin Eveline was a wonderful person, and she will be greatly missed. Growing up she was so good to my siblings and me. She went out of her way to help you in any way she could. Ronn and I could not wait to attend her fabulous Super Bowl Party. Rest in peace.
Love,
Ronn and Geraldine Broadway

I have known Everline for a long time. We both worked at Biology Division for a long time. She was a great person and I enjoyed knowing her. So sorry for your loss. I’m sure she made your life interesting. Lou Satterfield
Lynne and Leonard, may your heart be filled with the wonderful memories and times you shared with your mother. Family was everything to her, especially her children. She is definitely gone too soon. My cousin Everlene lived a good life and will be remembered for her style, grace, class, generosity, and one who worked very hard her entire life. She set her goals high, worked to achieve and see them come to life. She accomplished her childhood educational goals of graduating college and career goals working in chemistry. Everlene always maintained a beautiful home and was known for performing many of her own renovations. Absolutely one of a kind from her signature eye glasses, bridge parties with special friends, attending those crazy bingo games, decorating style, and of course those memorable Super Bowl parties she hosted for friends and family at her home. God quietly reached down to take her home. I will miss her but never forget her.
Lenard and Lynn, I’m so sorry to hear about the passing of your dear mother. Ms. Everline was always so kind to me. My prayers are with you and your family. God bless you.
