Eva loved the town of Long Lake, enjoying the outdoors and wonderful home life. Eva was an avid gardener and spent many hours caring lovingly for her many flowers. She was a member of St. Henry’s Catholic Church, where she volunteered with her many talents and celebrated her 61st year as a member of the Catholic Daughters of the Americas. Her favorite pass times included day trips to many sites throughout New York State, long walks no matter the weather and dining out with friends followed by Sunday afternoon card playing. Eva was a pillar of the community and will be missed by many. The family thanks her special friends Trudy Hooker, Lorrie Hosley, Barbara Hutchins, Helen Kentile, and Luzerne Rockwell, for their caring and kindness given to Eva over many years. Special appreciation to Dr. Russell Rider and staff of the Long Lake Medical Center and the High Peaks Hospice staff for their compassionate care of Eva.
