    I had been wondering about Evelyn. We were Grade School classmates when I lived on a farm between Hamilton and Birdsview when I was in my teens. Evelyn was a lovely person. I have sort of kept track of her through the years. I would like to drive up to the Hamilton Cemetery on Saturday but doubt if I will try to do that.
