Evelyn Mae Wolvert

Our mother, grandmother, great grandmother, and dad’s beloved wife passed on November 27th surrounded by family.  She was a Tri City resident for over 60 years.  Mom was born in Brainerd, Minnesota on March 24, 1931. Mom married her one true love, Walter, on June 30, 1951.  She was devoted to her family who knew they were loved to the fullest.  She loved to do special things for her family, which provided her with a special kind of joy and one of those things was making birthday cakes for them each year.  Another enjoyment was her favorite place to go camping with the family, which was Curlew Lake.

Mom loved to be surrounded by people and once she met them, they were no longer strangers.  She enjoyed life, a loving family, loved to laugh and loved her new Brookdale family.  Mom could always be found by the T.V. cheering on her Seahawks, Mariners and Gonzaga basketball teams.
