Dedicated to the memory of Eva Connell
A very fine and precious lady
Loving, warm-hearted, gentle, kind, generous, talented, fun, strong and always elegant – Mum was all these things and more, not only to us but to all who knew her. Quite simply, a beautiful soul.
Please join us to share wonderful memories and to celebrate her life at Lincoln Crematorium and afterwards at the County Assembly Rooms in the Bailgate.

Thoughts
“Hope” is the thing with feathers -
That perches in the soul -
And sings the tune without the words -
And never stops - at all -
And sweetest - in the Gale - is heard -
And sore must be the storm -
That could abash the little Bird
That kept so many warm -
I’ve heard it in the chillest land -
And on the strangest Sea -
Yet - never - in Extremity,
It asked a crumb - of me.
By Emily Dickinson
A poem for a lovely lady.

We Knew Eva in her later years through our wonderful friendship with Heather and Mike. What an amazing Lady ! She was really lovely - gentle, friendly, kind, chatty and always turned out to look glamorous and stylish. She was interested in others and always asked how we were, so very thoughtful too. A wonderful tribute and example to her generation and all of us behind her !

Eva was endlessly upbeat with a sparkle in her eye that did not dim and a wonderful dry sense of humour that made me laugh at unexpected moments. It’s a testament to who she was that her children and husband were so devoted to her and she will be so very missed by all she touched. I know that she will be happy now, reunited with her husband.
