Dear Rozema Family, So sorry to hear of the passing of your mom. Evie was a good friend of ours. Yvonne & I enjoyed working with her on the sales we held together. We didn't really call it "work" it was more a pleasure. Take peace in knowing that your mom was a believer in Christ as her Savior. Dick & Yvonne Blake
