Events
Keith,
Your mother was a saint, and kept us going on nights. I will miss her.
Evelyn fed many of us on the night shift at the hospital for many years. We had many good conversations. I have thought of her fondly when looking back.
Remembering Evelyn and Tiger and their consistent support for Elk County Pee Wee Football in the 1980s.
