MessageI can’t believe it has been 21 years since Eve’s passing. The Eve I knew had her Mother’s passion for truth, and dove deep for that. She was invincible and stunning. I didn’t know Eve for long, but she left an indelible print on my memory.

MessageEve brought curiosity, laughter, and light to our conversations. She made learning history better because Eve worked hard - unconventionally, but with all the due diligence that foreshadwowed her future professional career. Always authentically herself, Eve engaged with people forthrightly and kindly. In my mind, Eve lives on in brightly colored memories of a good soul finding her own way ever onward.

MessageTo my dear niece,

Eve, it is hard to believe you've been gone twenty years but in every way you are still with us due to the fund established in your name. It helps students in the classroom and with scholarships ; it helps babies and kids with infant seats and bicycle helmets, it helps those who are sick or struggling with health issues; it gives hope to Navaho parents who want a better life for their children. Eve's Fund is your lasting tribute! RIP.
Love,Aunt Mary Jane

MessageHappy 51st Birthday my sweet precious daughter. I remember the day you were born like it was yesterday. It was on a Monday at 2:18 pm. It was a glorious sunny autumn day in Boston and leaves were the color of what your hair became. You had a little bit of golden red hair on your head—not much—but it was evident that it would be red.
Oh my dear Eve, I can't believe I have been able to survive over 20 years without you. But you are still in my heart and in the hearts of many. Through Eve's Fund, your life continues to have meaning to many young people. Many of the young elementary school kids, upon receiving Magic Tree House Books thank you. The high school students who receive scholarships also thank you. They realize of course, even though you are not here with us, they are benefiting from the initiatives in your name and memory. You are improving the lives of others. I am celebrating your birth and life today and only wish you were still here physically. Love, Mom

MessageBarb and the many family and friends of Eve - thank you for keeping Eve's memory alive through your enduring work with Eve's Fund and the Think First Navajo initiatives as well as with your email updates and annual reminders of Eve's birthday and her passing. She was a radiant human being. Her flame burned brightly before being extinguished, but through our collective memory, she still brings light and warmth to many. She is dearly missed.

MessageWe are thinking of you on this 2025 anniversary of your daughter Eve’s passing…I want to remind you of your family’s amazing work at Navajo Nation regarding suicide and injury prevention. Eve’s Fund has helped to launch many safe places for individuals to feel safe and normal in seeking mental health services without stigma or shame. Thank you for this!
Your example demonstrates being a good relative by being humble and seeking happiness as tomorrow is promised to no one…To all members of the suicide survivors family, remember to love yourself and know your are loved…

MessageOh, my beloved Eve. How could it be possibly 20 years since that fateful day—your last day on this earth. Your spirit and values are still very much alive through the work of Eve's Fund. You will never be forgotten. I leaving you with the Tennyson poem that was included in the program at your funeral. You loved the sea so much and it still if poignant. You have crossed the bar. My love always, MOM


Sunset and evening star,
And one clear call for me!
And may there be no moaning of the bar
When I put out to sea

But such a tide as moving seems asleep,
Too full for sound and foam,
When that which drew from out the boundless deep Turns again home.

Twilight and evening bell,
And after that the dark!
And may there be no sadness of farewell
When I embark;

For, though from out our bourne of time and place
The flood may bear me far,
I hope to see my Pilot face to face
When I have crossed the bar.

MessageBarbara
I joined you recently as a suicide survivor losing my 51 year old son to suicide…I appreciate your ongoing friendship and support as we are learning to carry our grief and celebrate our children’s life as they lived it, not how it ended…This is truly what they would want for us and all the other parents who know our story…I wish you joy, happiness and love on this day!
Best
Clayton

MessageOh dear Eve,
I remember how excited we all were on your 30th birthday. You were excited about having a party with all of your friends to celebrate; your were enjoying your career as an associate at Kirkland & Ellis; and you seemed happy. Little did any of us know, that you would only live a few more months.
Dad and I remembered the few times that we had had conversations with you about death and death was always something you never seemed to fear. We also remembered how you always said, you would not want us to be sad.
So, that is what we have been trying to do for the past 19 years. We have kept your memory and the things you cared about alive through Eve's Fund and there are so many Native youth who have benefited from the programs in you name and memory. A number of the Navajo students even thank you when they are thanking Eve's Fund for helping to ease the financial burdens on their families to pay tuition. It is though you are right there with them, guiding them through life.
I am still sad every day and would give anything to have one more day with you on this earth, but I will continue to do the work of Eve's Fund because it brings me great joy to be making. a difference in the lives of so many.
With love always, Mom
