Pueblo Chieftain Tues Oct 25 2016
Evelyn Alderson, 81, passed away suddenly at her home on Oct. 21, 2016.
She was born Avelina Rodriguez on Nov. 10, 1934 in Pueblo, Colo., the youngest of six children born to parents, Lina Carrizalez Rodriguez and Esteban Rodriguez. A lifelong Pueblo resident, Evelyn was raised in the Bessemer area. She attended Minnequa and Bessemer Elementary, Keating Junior High and graduated from Central High School. Evelyn was employed by Sears for over 30 years, and spent many years as primary caregiver for her mother before her mother’s passing in 1992. Later that year, she married John Alderson and they shared a wonderful life together until his death in 1998. Evelyn was a faithful member of Our Lady of the Assumption and, later, Saint Mary Help of Christians Catholic Church. She kept an immaculate home and yard, and throughout life enjoyed swimming, bowling, traditional Mexican music and travels to Mexico for vacation and to visit family. Evelyn loved pets, especially her dog, Shine, and she took care of numerous stray cats in her neighborhood. Evelyn was a proud member of both the Central Wildcats Alumni Group and the Sears Retirement Group until it disbanded, and her water aerobics communities at both the YMCA and YWCA were an integral part of her life. Evelyn was preceded in death by her parents, Lina and Esteban Rodriguez; husband, John; and siblings, Hortencia “Tenne” Saldana, Esteban “Steve” Rodriguez and Guillermo “William” Rodriguez. She is survived by sister, Blasa Rivera; and brother, Jesus “Jess” Rodriguez, both of Pueblo; cousin, Augustina Garcia; nieces, Lucia (Bob) Rivera Aragon and Martha (Matthew) Yarusso; and nephews, George (Kathryn) Rivera and Juan Rivera, Maria (Eloy Trujillo), Cecilia Saldana Montana, Paul (Masumi) Rodriguez; as well as numerous other nieces and nephews, great- and great-great-nieces/nephews, friends and loved ones. She maintained very close bonds with niece, Maria Saldana; niece, Frances Rivera and great-niece, Jenny Rivera Trujillo; great- niece, Monica Johnson and her children, Sean, Blaze and Jesse-Rose Avelina; great-niece, Deann (Matt) Pujol; great-nephew, Eric (Beverly) Martinez and family; great-niece, Stephanie (Herb) Cork; and very dear family friend, Rosa Orozco. Viewing and rosary will be held at 9:30 a.m. on Saturday, Oct. 29, 2016, at St. Mary Help of Christians Church, 307 E. Mesa Ave. The funeral Mass will immediately follow at 10 a.m. Interment to follow at Roselawn Cemetery.
