Mary Louise Evans was born on January 6, 1938 in Laurel, MS to parents Rosa Foye and Doc Evans. Mary was an only child and grew up with her favorite cousin BabyRuth Weathersby and childhood friend Sylvia Mccullum. She attended Laurel High School.

Mary made her transition into eternal life on June 25, 2020 at Ridgewood Care Center in Racine, Wisconsin. She was preceded in death by her parents Rosa Lee Foye and Doc Evans and loving companion David Lee Washington. Mary is survived by five Children Larry Evans, Jerry Evans, Michael Evans, Tony Evans, Patricia Evans. Eleven Grandchildren Chanel Terry, Michelle Mack, Krystal Evans, Yolanda Ward, Brandon Evans, Deonyata Evans, Andre Evans, Steven Bunch, Cory Bunch, Khali Bunch, Larry Porter and several Great-Grandchildren.

Mary was a dedicated Mother and treasured her family and friends. Everyone knew her as “Sweet Pea” and she  embraced every precious moment of life and believed in forgiveness and compassion for others. She ensured that anyone who knew her was safe, healthy and happy. She loved fashion and “dressed to impress”. She always had a very strong faith in our Lord and Savior.

Family and freinds are invited to meet in the Draeger-Langendorf Funeral Home and Crematory on Thursday, July 2, 2020 for a visitation from 9-11 a.m.   A service celebrating her life and Homegoing will follow at 11:00 a.m. with Bishop James Ford officiating.  Her interment will follow at Graceland Cemetery.

   In accordance with the Racine County mandate, only 50 people will be allowed to enter the funeral home at a time.  For the safety and security of our guests we also strongly encourage those in attendance to bring and wear a face covering.  We thank everyone for their understanding and cooperation during this difficult time.

Testimonials

We want to thank Mike for the kindness and special attention he gave us for our mother. Marcella Conley. He came in the middle of the night himself to pick her up and take her to the funeral home. For the things that had to be taken care of, he told us not to worry; that it would be taken care of by him. Thank you also Mike for singing at her funeral, especially her favorite song, Amazing Grace. Thank you and all of your staff at Draeger-Langendorf.
