Evelyn could dance with the best of them as she attended many country and western dances.

Evelyn was preceded in death by her parents, F.F. Percell and Ethel Percell; a brother, Fred Dean Percell and a sister, June Patty.

She leaves behind her son, Freddie Allen of Bennington; nieces Ronda Akins, Katrina Buchanan, and Amanda Vandenburg; nephews Jeff Percell and Brad Percell; great nieces and nephews Wyatt Rhodes, Elaina Buchanan, Bryce Vandenburg, Jesse Akins, Matthew Buchanan, and Cole Vandenburg; as well as other extended family members.
