Linda Evans

Everything. The Mother. Mrs. Linda Evans is the epitome of Mothership. Ever since childhood, she always cared about others. Into adulthood, she was connected to the Spirit World. She led a Bible study of the “Girls In Action” at Holiday Heights Baptist Church. She wrote children’s books and had one of them published. She loved writing stories and her thoughts. She also enjoyed reading many kinds of literature. Her greatest accomplishment is the prominent gift of Giving. She would think of her family and even those outside of that before she thought to think about herself. Her compassion is commendable in all of All Heavens in existence.
She loves her family and always loved gathering together. She also loved art creativity. She made every child, grandchild to great-grandchild’s hand-stitched quilts and wardrobes. She was very professional and creative with her approach to sewing. She loves the “I Love Lucy” show and found great entertainment in it. She was also an excellent baker.
