Evelyn Helmers Obituary

Published by Legacy Remembers on Sep. 8, 2017.

Eagle's Wings

You who dwell in the shelter of the Lord,
who abide in His shadow for life,
say to the Lord, my refuge,
my rock in whom I trust.

And He will raise you up on eagles wings,
bear you on the breath of dawn,
make you to shine like the sun,
and hold you in the palm of His hand

Jo Helmers

Evelyn was a beautiful, loving woman with many talents. I first met her 64 years ago when I married her husband's brother and I last saw her when we visited at Muriels two years ago. Most of all she was a caring mother of one of God's special children. My thoughts and prayers are for Diane.
