Radio Telephone Operator: So that's it, no obituary, no announcement of services, no request to donate to a charity in lieu of flowers? And just where is the help from this church she participated in? Since she had no assets which could be sold to cover funeral costs, why aren't they seeing to it that their parishioner gets the public remembrance any human being should be entitled to? Isn't that why we put money in the collection plate and give them tax exempt status? I have no harsh words for the family, they have every right to mourn in private, but to watch just how quickly and quietly any evidence of her sojourn on this planet is fading away is a disturbing thing to observe.

Lisa: To Radio Telephone Operator: I'm Lisa, Evvy's daughter. I got onto the website to find Bill's phone number since I'd lost it and he was helping me with some of mom's computer stuff. Mom went downhill so fast (I think the last radiation treatment just took the last of her strength) that she didn't have a chance to give me passwords to her email accounts and web pages. We'd planned on doing that shortly... Her purse was stolen the last time she was in the hospital and her cell phone and phonebook were in there so I had no access to her personal info - friends, etc. I apologize to anyone I wasn't able to notify. My son was at her apartment intermittently taking care of the cat, mail, etc. and I had him answering the phone when he was there to tell people and pass the word. That's how I got hold of Bill. There was no help, it was just my son and I. I lost my car in the process of helping mom and by the time she went we were both so broke I had to donate her body to science.

Lisa: Apparently there's a limit to posts...The only help we got from her church was a lady coming over to collect donations of unused medical supplies for one of their ministries. It was a truly sad situation. It still is. I did get what was left of mom recently and am planning to spread her ashes up in LA where she lived for so long and wanted to be. So I do apologize to any of her friends that were not notified of her condition and passing. It was just a bad situation all around. Your concern was touching though - thank you.

Rosemary: I feel so bad about Evvy - I used to follow her blog. I can't believe her church or the volunteers did nothing to help at the end or offer to give her a nice funeral Mass.

Rosemary: At my church - there are so many volunteers/do-gooder's that they are tripping over each other. Really, you go to the soup kitchen and they can't find anything for you to do as all the chores already have helpers - and this is in more than one parish. Maybe they didn't know the circumstances? Anyway, I feel like I lost a friend. She was so kind to animals - a good person. What happened to her cat, if I may ask. Thank you. Rosemary in Chicago

Lisa: Hi Rosemary, mom's cat went to a good home. I was going to take her myself, but already had a couple of cats and thought that would overwhelm her. She went to a gal that absolutely adores her, knows her 'quirks' and promised to keep her all her life no matter what. Last I heard (last week) she's doing well and loving all the attention she's getting.

Sandie: So what you doing with Evvys' sight? Just leaving this up as a remembrance to her. This is pitiful. Do something with it or close it down.

Sandie: What are you doing with Evvy's site. Is meant to be a remembrance to her? This is pitiful. Do something with it or close it down and let The Lady rest in peace.

barbara: I am truly sorry to hear that Evvy passed away; several of us on a group had not heard and we are all saddened to hear this. I was looking for information when I ran across this site. I really enjoyed corresponding with her and she will be missed.

barbara: I am truly saddened to hear of Evvy's passing; several of us on a different group of which Evvy was a member have been wondering about her. I will let them know; I am sure they will all be saddened to hear about this. She will be missed.

If anyone wishes to verify this posting they can call me, Bill Houlne (WB6BNQ), at 619-474-3149. Fortunately Evvy was unable to see the posts over the last few weeks, as most posters are clearly not worthy of being considered as human. Evvy truly did not like and was saddened by all the debased, mean spirited, petty commentary. Hopefully, she is in a better place. As it stands, all the messages have been cleared and a number of people have been banned. If any of you feel you have been banned unfairly then send me an email at wb6bnq-at-cox.net. Any further sick postings will get you banned and the messages deleted.
