Mrs. Evans was a homemaker and an inactive member of Haw Branch Church of Christ but in her heart she felt the embrace of the out pouring of love from Ephesus Free Will Baptist Church. She loved God and Jesus Christ our Lord and Savior first and foremost. Mrs. Evans was a loving, giving and compassionate person who touched many people. She made an impact on many peoples’ lives, some of which never knew where the generosity came from.
