Eyelyn Ada McMillan


This post is dedicated to a life well lived. A life that was a good example, leader and inspiration. Eveyln Ada McMillan, Febuary 14, 1908 - September 10, 2011, She was my great grandmother and was 103 when she died; she definitely lived it well.

She is about 19 in these next 3 pictures.



This is a car she bought for her parents.
Her husband, Jim McMillan, died in 1987. She met him when she began teaching and he was the pricipal at the school. School teachers where not supposed to get married so they where married secretly. This picture is at their 50th anniversery.
In this picture she is farthest to the right in the striped shirt, my dad is the tallest one in the back as usual:)
Evelyn at my dad's graduation from Linfeild College.
