MessageBarbara thank you for sharing this website and the reminders of Eve. I miss her too and think of her often. She was a wonderful friend and an inspiration with the energy that she put into everything that she was passionate about. She made me strive to be a better person in many facets of life from exercise to academics. I don't think she ever realized what a beautiful woman and incredible person she was. Now, more than 10 years later and as a mother of 3 daughters, my heart goes out to you, I cannot imagine how difficult the loss of a daughter could be.

MessageI only met Eve briefly, but felt deeply her warmth and beautiful spirit. I am so sad for your loss, Barb, and inspired by your ability to show up each day with courage, enthusiasm and love in your heart. I am in awe of the work you and Bob are doing to promote hope and wellness for young Native Americans through Eve's Fund. You have helped many and changed lives. Eve's beautiful spirit will never die. I love you.

MessageBob and Barbara,

I want to validate your awesome labor of love you do for indigenous peoples from the Navajo Nation in memory of your beautiful daughter, Eve! Your efforts save lives and offer hope for a new day for many who suffer from depression, childhood trauma, substance abuse, violence and suicide. It is one thing to talk about these challenges and quite another course to roll up your sleeves, get in the trenches and make a difference! That is what you two continue to do as friends and allies to Native people. You have chosen not to sit on the sidelines and for that I believe in my heart of hearts that your daughter Eve, is so very proud of you tireless work in her memory.
Stay well, Stay strong!!
Your brother in wellness and healing,
Clayton

MessageIt's hard to believe how much time has passed since Eve graced this earth. I didn't have an opportunity to know Eve when she was emerging into such a beautiful, talented woman. Nonetheless it's clear she would have continued on a path to success and self-fulfillment because she carried within her the talents and sensibilities of her 2 very special parents. And there's no doubt that she left an indelible imprint behind which remains forever.

MessageBarbara,

I am glad that through Eve I have become friends with you. As I've told you before, I've spent time in New Mexico and I have witnessed the urgent needs of the Navajo children in poverty.

Like I've said before, I had kind of run out of memories of Eve. I looked at some of the pictures. She is shaking hands with Headmaster Grubbs. My parents have the same picture of me in their living room. It reminded me and you may not know the full story of this. Each year Mr. Grubbs had admissions staff select one student from each class year for him to be an advisor for. My friend Stu had Mr. Grubbs the year before. He told me that Mr. Grubbs always asked for a student who would give interesting ideas. So Eve was selected out of a class of about 110 people, so somebody must have seen something special in Eve. I'm not explaining this very clearly, I realize, but I hope you can follow. The other thing I learned was that Eve liked to put Mr. Grubbs on the spot. And our small English class we would tell stories before class and she had some good ones about talking to Mr. Grubbs.

The other thing I remembered about Eve is that she loved to sing. I'm sure you know this but she would sing on the way to class. She would sing random stuff like TV theme songs. And she sang so well. She used to sing a song about "That good ole' Mountain Dew". I figured it was a jingle from a soda ad till I heard somebody sing it at an old time/bluegrass festival

MessageWe never knew Eve but we know her mother and step-father well. We shared a similar loss of our daughter at a young age due to an accident. We know what this is like and it's horrible, worse than anything one can imagine. After our daughter's death but before Eve's, Barbara spoke with me (Paul) at length at our combined high school reunion, expressed her sympathy and talked with me gently about life going on and living for our daughter. She truly buoyed my spirits. Sadly, less than a year later, it was our turn to try to make some sense out of all this to Barbara. It's difficult, if not impossible. Regardless, Barbara and Eve's Dad seized the initiative and organized Eve's Fund and made it a going concern. What a great tribute to Eve!! We're honored to know Barbara and Vance, value our friendship and still share sad but positive thoughts every year. This will never go away--time is no help--but helping people like Eve's Fund does goes a long way to make it palatable.

MessageAnother year without you dear sweet Eve...some days I ask myself how I have survived this long with you not here. Then I realize your spirit lives on through our work with Eve's Fund and from the realization of how many people's lives you have positively impacted in life and in death.
You will always be here with me in my heart.
Love, MOM
