So many wonderful memories of Evelyn as a Telephonist at CCEPB - she had a wonderful sense of humour and a knack of being able to "get out of difficult situations"! Her love of animals was also second to none!

My deepest sympathy to the family. I worked with Ev in the 90's and I will always remember her for her great love and kindness to animals. She would always go the extra mile to try and help lost or found dogs in Selwyn find their homes. Also remember her for her very quick wit! Fond memories of a lovely, kind lady.
