To the Family of Evelyn:

I worked with "Smokey" from 1958 until 1965 in the Jacksonville Field Office. I thought the world of both Smokey and Evelyn. It was such a pleasure to re-unite with them in recent years through the FBI Alumni meetings. You are all in my prayers. I do know that they are truly happily reunited as we speak! RIP, Smokey and Evelyn.

Sincerely,

Eve K. Syler
Stenographer (1958-1965)
