Dear Family,
I am your Aunt LaVerne’s daughter, I would like to extend our sympathy to my cousins for the lose of your Mom. Aunt Evelyn was always lots of fun when she would come to our house to visit. We have lost many relatives but we can find comfort in knowing that we will be with them again. It is Mom’s birthday today, May 20th. She will be thrilled to have her sister with her to celebrate in the Heavens. Our thoughts and prayers are with you all.
Love The Kasprick Girls

Our deepest sympathy to Auntie Evelyn’s family members. I remember Auntie Evelyn’s visits to Grand Forks. Mom would call us girls over to visit. Auntie Evelyn was always interested in catching up on our lives, sharing a few laughs, and playing with our long hair. She was a sweet soul and will be missed.

I will always remember her sense of humor and welcoming spirit every time I visited her. I am blessed to have crossed paths with her.
