Evelyn Romolt (nee Goldberg), passed suddenly on February 26 at the age of 92. Evelyn was the beloved wife of the late Oscar, having been married for 64 years. She was the daughter of the late Esther and Harry; sister to the late Clarence, Allen "Sonny", and Henrietta. Evelyn was the dear sister-in-law of the late Ben, Abe, Clara, and Veta. Her greatest joy was being a mother to Ray (Shelly), Curtis (Christine), and the late Bennett. Evelyn's grandchildren Courtney, Lauren (Jake), Caitlin, and Maddie, were a constant source of pride. She was thrilled when her great granddaughter, Mckenzie arrived.
Evelyn loved her family, her cats, the Coffee Girls, her neighbors, and her years working at Babson Bros. She was interested in everyone's story and was a true people person. Evelyn was an avid reader and was very interested in current events. She was a lifelong Democrat and proud of her Jewish heritage. Over the years Evelyn was a Cub Scout den mother and volunteered at many of her children's school events. She also volunteered at MacNeal Hospital and the Brookfield Library. We would like to acknowledge Mike K. and the late John C; with their support, Evelyn was able to remain in her beloved Hollywood home.
Evelyn will be missed by so many. "May her memory be a blessing." To honor her life, share a cup of coffee and some conversation with a friend.
Visitation and Services will be held Privately.
Private Interment Menorah Gardens Cemetery, Broadview.
