Evelyn Joan Weare

Evelyn Joan Weare of Dunkirk Maryland passed due to natural causes on Friday, October 11th at the ‘young’ age of 92 years. Evelyn was born in 1927 to Oliver and Beulah Baker and was the youngest of the couples four children. She was the loving mother of the late Keith Stacey of Florence Arizona and is survived by her beloved grandchildren (De-Anna Stacey and Marc Karlicek, Amy and Troy Saunders, Korey Stacey, David Stacey, Rebecca Stacey, Michael Stacey, and Jason Stacey). She was a cherished great grandmother to Marilynn, Tyler, Alexander, Jade, Damien, Alissa, Terrence, Tristian, and Jesse. Evelyn loved her family dearly and will also be remembered by her many nieces and nephews as the matriarch of her family. Evelyn was born in Marion Indiana and lived in Arizona for over 50 years. She moved to Dunkirk, Maryland in May of 2018 to live with Amy, Troy and Tyler. Her primary occupation was a Switchboard Operator for the Telephone Company and then began work at craft stores where her natural creativity could blossom. She was a beautiful woman known for her sweet disposition, her jovial nature, and her avid love of the Church. She cared deeply for the people at Friendship United Methodist Church in Maryland and Florence Baptist Church in Arizona. Evelyn was a breast cancer survivor who actively participated in the relay-for-life charity events in Arizona. Her son, Keith, became a hero as an organ donor upon his passing when a recipient received his liver on Easter morning in 2018.
