Evelyn Futrell Cashwell
February 29, 1928 — April 29, 2015
Gibson
Evelyn Futrell Brown Cashwell lived for the Lord and joined His heavenly kingdom on April 29, 2015.
Her funeral service will be 2:00 p.m. Saturday at the First Baptist Church. Burial will follow in Hillside Cemetery.
She is survived by her grateful children; Sybil (Pat) Newman of Franklin, VA, Diane (Bernie) Petteway of Raleigh, Michael (Debbie) Cashwell of New Bern, Jennifer (Tim) Tillman of Gibson, and Joseph Cashwell of Fayetteville; her beloved grandchildren, Tyler (Meredith) Newman, Natalie Newman, Blair Crocker, Erin Timmermans, Robyn Cashwell, Megan Tillman, and Meredith Tillman; and her precious great grandchildren, Holland Newman, Townes Newman, Sarah Crocker, Jacob Crocker, and Skyla Tower.
Born in Rock Hill, SC to Otis and Lois Powers Futrell, she is also survived by three siblings; Frank Futrell, Gary Futrell, and Sylvia Griggs. She was predeceased by her first husband, Berlin Zane Brown and her second husband, Joseph Dwight Cashwell; her siblings Dollie Brewin, Berlin Futrell, Darrell Futrell, Pete Futrell, Sonny Futrell, and Aileene Perkins.
A devoted member of the First Baptist Church for over 60 years, Evelyn ministered to others through her Fidelis Sunday School class, Women's Missionary Union, Vacation Bible School, her Bereavement Committee, and other activities of the church. She toiled cheerfully and tirelessly, and felt especially blessed to serve bereaved families meals and spend quality time with them. Always a faithful visitor in nursing homes, she often surprised patients with crackers, cookies, and other treats.
Evelyn loved her family and spending time with them was her greatest joy. She served others tirelessly all of her life – through childcare at her Toddler House days or at the salad bar at Scotland High School. She counseled and cajoled many students who knew her affectionately as "Grandma."
Memorials are requested for the First Baptist Church, PO Box 883, Laurinburg, NC 28353.
The family will be receiving friends from 6 to 8 p.m. Friday at the McDougald Funeral Home and Crematorium.
