Eva was a precious lady. She was always ready to greet us at church, a great encourager to Ronnie with his sermons, and a sweet friend. I was so blessed by getting to visit her at Helen Greathousewhile still living in Midland- she kept check on everyone. Even after we moved, she would email me news about different friends there. We are grateful she has received her reward, but hurt with you in your loss. We are all the better for having known Eva!May God give you His gift of comfort and the sweet memories of her to bring sunshine to your hearts. Much love,Ronnie and Marsha
