• I am sending my condolences to Evelyn's family and friends. I am so saddened to hear of Evelyn's passing. When I worked with Evelyn at Air Canada she was my Hollywood partner. Oh how we loved to talk about all the stars, analyzing their every scandal and marriage, and speaking as though we had all the answers to their problems. The laughs we shared with all of our analyzing will remain with me forever. Evelyn always made me smile when she spoke of her family. So proud and just so in love with them. Evelyn will never be forgotten and will be missed by all. Evelyn, you always were the star. Rest in peace. - Posted by: Donna Silman (Freind and retired co-worker) on: Jun 15, 2016

• I grew up as the little cousin and always looked up to the senior ones. Way back when I met Evelyn, it was obvious that this was an amazing, funny, and friendly woman and we were all lucky to have this new cousin! Apparently everyone who knew Evelyn knew this. Gary I'm so sorry that your time together was cut too short. My thoughts are with you and your family and all the Tofield cousins.

• It it with a heavy heart that I write these words about our dear friend Evelyn (Evy). Evelyn was one of a kind; an infectious laugh, a bright smile that lights up the room, dressed to the nines, strong willed and full of life, loving and thoughtful, fun and energetic, spiritual and a believer. Evelyn and I shared many laughs and talks in and out of the office and on our adventurous trips together. The highlight was when when Evelyn finally got to go to the sought after Oprah show. My thoughts and prayers go out to Gary, Nick and Victoria, their families and to the Air Canada Family that were fortunate to have worked with her. Evelyn will leave an irreplaceable void in the workplace but the stories and the memories will live in all of our hearts forever. Rest in peace, you are in paradise and until we meet again. - Posted by: Tammy Galvao (Friend and colleague) on: Jun 11, 2016

• I too am shocked and saddened with the passing of this beautiful person who I was honoured to call a friend. Evelyn loved life and her smile lit up a room. I knew Evelyn best in her earlier years but catching up to her on Facebook and I could see the love and devotion she had for her family, friends and God. I know God will willingly accept Evelyn home, it just saddens me we could not have more time with her. Evelyn's legacy will live on. She was loved by so many. RIP my dear friend. God has called you and we will always keep you close to our heart. - Posted by: Ronda Pfeiffer (Friend) on: Jun 11, 2016

• We are so shocked and saddened about the loss of our special friend, and our hearts go out to all the family. She made such a positive impact on everyone whose life she touched, and we are so blessed and honoured she was a part of ours. She will be greatly missed, especially her laughter and her jokes. Not to mention the great travel stories of when we were in........ And although we are sad for her loss, we are at peace knowing she she has been welcomed home by her Lord, and her mom and dad. - Posted by: Sheldon and Charlene (friends) on: Jun 11, 2016
