Eva was such a beautiful example of a good and Godly woman. Her dedication to her Catholic faith was so inspiring. She seldom missed a family function and was so often surrounded by her kids and grandkids. Her love for them was as evident as their love for her. She had such a calm and peaceful way about her. The world could use a few more “Eva’s.” May God comfort her family and friends as they learn to live without this treasured angel. Hugs to all.
