Virginia Mae Evans, 87, residing in South Bend, passed away at 9:27 pm Tuesday, September 29, 2015 in Healthwin Specialized Care. She was born April 27, 1928 in South Bend to the late Everett and Inez (Slocum) Hyatt and remained a lifelong area resident.

Virginia is survived by two daughters, Sherry (Paul) Evans-Everling of Indianapolis, IN and Debrah K.

Virginia was a candy striper for several years in the nursery at the South Bend Osteopathic Hospital as well as a key punch operator at St. Joseph Valley Bank. Her greatest time was spent as a homemaker, and she will be greatly missed by her family left behind.
