In memory of

Evadne Louise Meikle

January 29, 1922 - February 21, 2024

Our dearest Evadne or Eva as friends called her passed away peacefully at Eastonville nursing home at the amazing age of 102 years.

She was beloved sister to Gladys, Dorothy, and Raphael who have all predeceased her.
Aunt to Dorothy Clayton and her husband Michael who has also predeceased her.

Grand Aunt to Richard and (twins) Petra and Nicola. Great grand Aunt to Sophia, Grace and (Twins) Elena and Emily, Mahe, Thea and (twins) Michael and Jonathan. Cousin to Bertram.

Evadne dedicated her life to nursing and caring for others. She also was an avid and passionate tennis player and a great tennis fan. Loved being at the Mayfair Club where she met many wonderful and loving friends. Always so kind, generous and giving. She will be truly missed but her cherished memories will live on in our hearts forever. It has been quite the journey over a century. May you rest in peace.

Condolences to the family. Eva was my Tennis buddy for many years. She was instrumental in bringing me nto her circle of friends and we got to spend some fun girls weekends away. I will miss her dearly. 😢

A lifelong friend, Eva always gave me good advice on health and exercises. She was a very wise woman, kind, fun and generous. I never saw her without a smile on her face.

I simply do not have enough words to describe this wonderful gentle sole who I have known and known well since my early twenties. She was like family to me, to my children Natalie and Paul who she loved so much and to my ex. She never forgot birthdays or any other special occasions. Her motto was to GIVE. I don’t think receiving was even in her vocabulary. She was the Wisest woman I have ever known. I have missed Evadne for a long time now. Always spoke from the heart. She was inspirational. She read people so well. I honestly thought she was psychic at times. And I’m sure she was. She spoke highly of Dorothy and the children. How intelligent they were. She always talked about them. And the whole family.
May the Lord look after this incredible human being.
Evadne’s whole foods, non processed foods, nuts, whole grains, fruits I’m sure helped her to live this wonderful life. Her love of people must have made her the most wonderful nurse. And what she accomplished at tennis. Incredible. She made so many friends. And she was a cherished friend to many I’m sure.
Love you forever Evadne.
Marie
I must not forget that very special person that she so loved. Her Grandmother.
