Evelyn L. Eden passed away Friday, May 29, 1998. She was a resident of the area since 1960, formerly of Oak Park, IL and Chicago, IL (where she was born). She was the wife of the late Commander Walter J. Eden, daughter of the late Mr. and Mrs. Charles F. Lorenzen and sister of the late Charles F. Lorenzen, Jr., and Virginia Schneider. Mrs. Eden was a member of the Retired Officers Wives Assoc., Navy League of the U.S. and Church-by-the-Sea. Memorial service, 11:30 AM, Sunday, June 14th at Church-By-The-Sea, 2700 Mayan Dr., Ft. Lauderdale with Dr. Evans officiating. --Arrangements by Fairchild Funeral Home, Ft. Lauderdale, phone: 763-4488.
--Sun-Sentinel, 7 June 1988
Mrs. Eden is listed in the 1930 Census as a public schoolteacher. She lived with her parents in Oak Park until 1940, and then in Springfield, IL when her father got a job with the Illinois Secretary of State's office. It is thought that her mother and sister were both in ill health for many years, and it may have fallen to Evelyn to care for them. After her parents, sister and brother-in-law died, Evelyn lived in Chicago, and got married at age 53. A year later, she and her husband, Walter, moved to Ft. Lauderdale.
Though Mrs. Eden has a headstone at Concordia Cemetery, where most of her family is interred, she changed her mind after her brother's funeral. His ashes were scattered in the canal near their church, and Evelyn left instructions to have her ashes scattered there as well.
