    We are sorry for the loss of Ms Evie….she was a super lady and I will miss her smiling face and sweet nature. She and Mr Dewitt were TRUE neighbors, as our Lord teaches us in the Bible. One year Mr Dove shot and butchered 2 deer and they and some others in the community got together and bought some groceries for our family years ago when my husband was injured on the job and we had very little income. This was 2 days before Thanksgiving about 15 yrs ago. We have never forgotten their kindness. The world needs more people like the Doves. Our thoughts and prayers are with the family. I look forward to seeing them in Heaven. I am sorry we had to work today and missed her funeral.
