Quick News From Jane

SCNC Friends,

The following was recievd from John Thomas this weekend:

Friends:  We received word yesterday that Joe Evans died in Sarasota early yesterday morning.  Joe served for many years as the Secretary of the UCC and, for two years following Bob Moss' death, was the President of the UCC.  He was 92 years old.  He and Harriett had been married 63 years.  Joe had been in failing health in recent months, but we celebrate the fact that he was able to attend the 50th anniversary General Synod.  Harriett is being well supported by her church in Sarasota and by her daughter and son-in-law who live nearby.  There will be a small family service soon, followed by a memorial service later this spring.  I will certainly let you know the details for that.  Ben Guess will have a story on the web in the next day or so.  Please keep Harriett in your prayers. 

John
