Evelyn lovingly assisted her husband serving as pastor of several Texas, Oklahoma, and Colorado churches including 1st Baptist Churches of Lueders, Hawley, and O'Brien, and Trinity Baptist Church in Stamford. Evelyn loved her Lord Jesus Christ first and her husband and children second. Her passion and ministry was teaching and discipling to equip the saints for the ministry of the Gospel. Bible Study and prayer was a daily event in her life. She would pray for each of her family members by name, while on her knees.

Evelyn and her husband have been living in Weatherford, Texas with their daughter Renda for the last several years so she could attend their health needs.

Evelyn was a member of the Community Baptist Church in Weatherford.
