Please accept my condolences on the passing of both Evelyn and Art. I met Evelyn at my very first job at CIBC. She wasn't my boss but I soon learned, when Evelyn spoke, we listened. She was a 'no nonsense' kind of a supervisor, who always gave 110% and expected others to do the same. I personally found her to be a breath of fresh air; no one had to wonder what she was thinking and, honestly, i think she knew the answer to pretty much every question there was about banking!
I soon learned that Evelyn and Art were devoted to each other. As a professional in what was then considered a man's career, Evelyn had to have pretty thick skin but I always thought Art brought out the best in her.
I later got to know Evelyn and Art a little better when I worked at Red Deer County and they lived in College Park. They were articulate, kind, considerate, fair-minded individuals and I always enjoyed our interactions.
While I'm sure many mourn their loss, I'm glad they are together once again. Peace be with you.
