Born on July 22, 1934, Evelyn’s life was characterized by determination and a strong work ethic, having started working at the tender age of 10 alongside her sister at their mother's restaurant in 1944.

Evelyn was more than just a dedicated professional; she was a woman of diverse interests. She found joy in crocheting and sewing, often crafting beautiful pieces that were cherished by her family and friends. A lover of animals, she had a special fondness for cats, which brought joy and companionship into her life.

She is also survived by her daughter Evelyn Jo Mekosh, her grandchildren Kyle Richards (wife Rachel Richards), Lake Richards, and Dalton Richards, along with six great-grandchildren who were a source of immense pride and joy for her.
She is preceded in death by her beloved sisters, Ruth Reynolds and Irene Garries, as well as her mother, Malinda Day, father, Herbert Reynolds, and stepfather, Thurston Vires.
Evelyn's legacy of hard work, love for her family, and passion for hobbies will forever be remembered by those who knew her. Her unwavering spirit and commitment to her loved ones will continue to inspire her family for generations to come.
