Obituary of Evelyn Mary Reynolds
December 5, 1924 – January 31, 2021
With heavy hearts, we say goodbye to Evelyn Mary Reynolds, aka "Auntie Eve" on January 31, 2021.
A determined, feisty, strong and independent woman, she was determined to make it to age 96 and she did. She was proud to be the longest living Reynolds woman; proud to own Reynolds Beauty Salon with her sister Mabel for almost 5 decades; proud of being the first Reynolds woman to have a license to drive a car which enabled her to drive to age 92, a feat that allowed her to go daily to the nursing home to see her beloved sister Cora; and proud to be a beloved aunt and sister.
Predeceased by her parents William and Mary, sisters Mabel, Ethel and Cora and brothers Jim, Howard, Gordon and Clifford. She will be greatly missed by her dear brother Verne (Jean) and will be fondly remembered by many nieces and nephews.
We would like to thank McCormick Home staff for their wonderful care, especially the team from Willow Ridge who made her last address a loving and respectful home and for the honour guard that sent her on her final journey. Special thanks to niece Karen for her thoughtful care, love and support.
Cremation has taken place.
Due to Covid-19 there will be a private interment with a memorial celebration at a later date.
Donations to McCormick Care Foundation, 2022 Kains Road, London, ON N6K 0A8 are greatly appreciated.
Arrangements entrusted to EVANS FUNERAL HOME, 648 Hamilton Rd., London, Ontario (519-451-9350).
