  Bio: Evelyn M. Sheldon, Sioux Falls, SD, died April 29, 2007, at her home. Surrounded by her loving family, Evelyn passed away quietly following a courageous battle with cancer. She was 82. Evelyn was born on May 5, 1924, in Worthing, SD, to George and Matilda (Orstad) Abbas. She was raised on her family's farm near Worthing, where she graduated from high school in 1942. Evelyn then moved to Sioux Falls. For a period of time she worked as a nanny. Evelyn then started her employment with the State Theatre, selling tickets and working as a bookkeeper. In 1947, she began her career as a clerk with the Minnehaha Treasurers Office and Register of Deeds. Evelyn was united in marriage to Lyle Sheldon on December 5, 1953. In 1962, she left the work force to become a homemaker. Evelyn was known throughout the neighborhood as a welcoming "mom" to many children, and treated everyone like a best friend. She was a member of Our Savior's Lutheran Church, where she was involved with church circle, and a member of the Daughters of the Nile. A superb host, Evelyn was thrilled to entertain family and friends. For many years, she hosted Bridge Clubs and was an avid bridge player. She looked forward to holidays and holiday traditions, when she would prepare the home for family activities. She loved her family deeply and cherished each moment with her grandchildren.
