1928-2018
Passed away on the evening of October 11, 2018 in Berlin, MD. Born in St. Albans, NY she transplanted to Arlington, VA where she resided until she retired to Colonial Beach. While living in Arlington she attended W-L High School and later met her husband Bud Shepherd who she was happily married to for almost 60 years. She was an incredible Mom who volunteered at her kids schools, served as a scout leader and always drove 1/2 the baseball team to their games. She loved her time working for the Commissioner of the Revenue for Arlington until she retired. While living at Colonial Beach, she volunteered as a mentor in the local elementary school and at the Colonial Beach Museum. She had a very happy and active social life with friends and family. She will be deeply and forever missed by her children, Andy, Rick and Sandy, their spouses Brenda, Nancy and Russ; her grandchildren, Christina, Dusty, Erin, PJ, Ryan and Jack; her great grandchildren Tyler, Conner, Addison and Silas. She is also survived by her sister Virginia "Chickie" Gross and nieces and nephews who hold a special place in her heart. As a long time heart patient, Evie requests in lieu of flowers donations be made to the American Heart Association.
Her family will receive friends from 2:00 PM until 4:00 PM Wednesday, October 24, 2018 at Storke Funeral Home Nash & Slaw Chapel, 131 3rd St., Colonial Beach, VA 22443.
