Mary
Johnston
Evans,
beloved wife
of James H.
Evans
(Retired
Chairman,
Union
Pacific
Corporation,
was smart,
witty and
incredibly
charming.
To celebrate
her life and
legacy, the
combined
family of
Jim and
Mary
gathered in
New York
recently to
remember and
honor the
remarkably
bright and
talented
woman who
was their
mother,
sister,
aunt and
grandmother.
She was memorialized in a service at Brick Presbyterian and toasted at
a reception at the Knickerbocker Club and at a dinner at the
Links Club
thereafter.
If the measure of a person is the family they loved, the lives they
touched, the
way they
lived, the
good they
did, and the
way others
regard them,
Mary
Johnston
Evans? life
was truly an
embarrassment
of riches.
And all who
knew her and
loved her
are far
richer for
the
experience. |
