Evelyn Adams Jacksina passed away on November 25, 2020 after battling a neurological disorder for twenty years.

Beloved wife of Fire Captain “Dutch” Leroy Jacksina for 61 years.

Mother of Donna Shuff (Merle), Rebecca Toups (Mark), Laura Jacksina, and late Robin Wood (late Jess).

Grandmother of Jared Riggs, Narah Yowell (Shannon), Holly Chotto, Aaron Toups, and Aubrey Jacksina. Great-grandmother of Loralie, Noelle, Edwin, Joshua, Jacey, and Masen.

Daughter of the late Aubrey “Pete” Adams and Rose Guidry Adams.

Sister of Deanna Reine, Rosabelle Berger (late Billy), and Aubrey Adams, Jr. (Mary).

Also survived by a host of nieces and nephews. Age 84 years, a native of Cut Off, LA and resident of Belle Chasse, LA.

Evelyn attended school at Holy Name of Mary in Algiers and graduated from Behrman High School. She was a homemaker and professional seamstress having won awards five years in a row at the annual Plaquemines Parish Orange Festival. She was an avid bowler and achieved 500 series and 50 over average.

Evelyn was a faithful parishioner of Our Lady of Perpetual Help Church, was an active member and past president of the altar society for many years, and received the Order of St. Louis Medallion. She even sewed all the church vestments and banners. She also worked with the St. Vincent de Paul charities and was chairman of the OLPH Fair crafting and donating 25 to 30 silk flower arrangements and working booths. She was generous and gave to over 30 charities.

Dutch will remember her as a wonderful wife, having saved his life, and made him the man he is today. She was a loving mother and grandmother, and dear friend to all. She was always smiling, there for anyone when needed, and will be deeply missed by everyone.

Special thanks to Concerned Care hospice for their care and support over the last 19 months.

Relatives and Friends of the Family are invited to attend the Visitation at Our Lady of Perpetual Help Catholic Church, Belle Chasse, LA on Wednesday, December 2, 2020 from 10 AM until Funeral Mass time at 12 PM. Interment will follow in Our Lady of Perpetual Help Mausoleum
