Mom we love you and miss you. Dominic said to me as I was crying today; "I miss my Mom" he said "Grandmom you still have a Mom my Mom", from the mouth of babes he is only 5 years-old. Like he told his Mom "Don't cry Mommie Jesus will take care of Aunt Gran".

My Dear Mom, She was my everything. She was an amazing person. She raised 8 of us Children all by herself without any help at all from my father. She taught all of us children to be strong and “ nothing lasts forever “. She raised 8 children all of which became very successful and upstanding people in the community. She really didn’t have anything while she raised the 8 of her children. Years before her passing her Son Michael made sure she wanted for nothing. Right down to her use of his private limo to take her out on Friday and Saturday nights. When she became ill Michael bought her a Brand New Jaguar. Although she didn’t drive she had the privilege of saying it was her car and would have her nurses aides and her daughter Cindy drive her to her Doctors Appointment s in it. When her health declined to a point she was practically bed ridden, Michael and Cindy both made sure she was not sent to a nursing home. Instead her son Michael moved back into her home with her to take care of her during the night hours. During the day hours when He and Cindy had to work , Michael her son made sure she was provided with around the clock nurses aides, a concierge Doctor who made sure she had all of the best medical care possible. Evelyn was able to live in her “ Dream Home” in Voorhees that she was able to purchase because Virtua Hospital Purchased her 3 Bedroom one bath brick rancher on Dutchtown Rd where she raised all 8 of her children with a huge amount of help from her Daughter Diane who gave all of her younger years in life and devoted it to taking care of her Mother as well as her 5 younger siblings which the youngest at the time were one month old when my Mother Divorced my father for “ Extreme Mental and Physical abuse”. Which the proceeds from her sale of her 3 bedroom rancher she purchased her dream home which was a Five Bedroom 2 Bath home in Voorhees Township. With the help of her son Michael she was able to completely remodel the already beautiful home to her taste and things she always dreamed of having for years. She was never going to even the inside of a nursing home or any other assisted care home due to the help she received from her Son Michael and Daughter Cindy. She had 24/7 around the clock nursing care. She had a personal chef who made sure her dietary and nutritional needs were met. Along with a Conceirge Doctor who came to her home, along with an optometrist, an endocrinologist, a podiatrist as well as all her blood work and diagnostic testing were done in her residence. As she told everyone up until the day she passed Her two Children Michael and Cindy made sure she wanted for nothing, down to the $20,000 Special Open door bath tub and her Master Bath completely renovated to fit her needs. She was a very Proud and Strong Lady. But with the help of her 3 children Diane, Michael and Cindy she was able to pss knowing she went from very financially poor, but a house filled with love and joy, to the home and lifestyle of her dreams filled with even more love and caring than anyone could ever ask for. Rest in Peace Mom. You did in your little de what several people said was not possible. You did it and did it very well for a single woman with 8 children to raise on her own in the 70s when they had no Domestic Abuse Laws and did not enforce the little child support she was awarded, not one dime was ever paid by my father. I am so Proud of You and Diane and Cindy. I am especially blessed to have my Sisters here for me and all the great advice and memories you gave to us all. You will never be forgotten.
