My condolences for the loss of Mrs. Evelyn, I have fond memories of her when growing up in the Hamilton community she was a kind gracious lady always willing to help neighbors and blessing the community. She and Mr. Joe Bob was pillars in the community part of the greatest generation. There shall be a glad reunion day in heaven we shall meet agin.
“Git her done “ was a phrase that could have originated with Mrs. Evelyn. She not only did what was expected of farm wives in the Hamilton Community, she was a MOTHER to her girls and to the rest
Of us lucky enough to grow up in that place and time.
Hamilton Methodist Church had the most efficient and engaged group of women during her leadership. There were a lot of chiefs and not so many Indians but they were incredible in what they accomplished for the youth , children, church and community . I owe a deep debt of gratitude to Mrs. Evelyn for showing me that obstacles are challenges and challenges are opportunities and opportunities are blessings so “Git her done!”
You are right, Ricky, we’ve lost another one of the Greatest Generation!

It was an honor to take care of such as sweet lady. She will be missed.
I have been in the nursing home for almost two years. Mrs. Goacher was across the hall from me for quite a while and then I moved next door to her. She was always so nice to me and we enjoyed talking to each other. I will miss her very much.
