She attended a college of nursing in Mankato, Minn. Evelyn married Omer Twet on Dec. 2, 1941, in Seattle. She worked as registered nurse in Minot, N.D., Seattle, Fort Smith, Ark., and Billings.

Evelyn was a longtime member at the Central Christian Church. She truly enjoyed the services and the many friends that she had met there. Evelyn spoke fondly of the many church tours she had gone on.

She loved working around her house, and especially in her flower garden. She was an avid painter, and her many pictures will be shared by her children, grandchildren and great-grandchildren.

Evelyn and her husband were members of the local Old Car Club.

She was preceded in death by her parents; her husband, Omer Twet; two brothers, Roy and Arthur Vincent; and just a few days after Evelyn passed away, her brother, Elmer Vincent, died; three sisters, Jo Gates, Irene Otten and Mae Rose.
