Evelyn was born in Philadelphia, Pennsylvania, on May 2, 1955, to the late Warren and Eleanor Schrader. Family meant everything to her, especially her 2 grandsons who she was so proud of. Christmas was always a special time for Evelyn, making cookies and creating gingerbread houses made her the happiest.

With her creative skills, she enjoyed doing crafts and always had an artistic eye for detail. She recently moved into a new home that she worked so hard on. Always one to put others before herself, Evelyn would help anyone in need and always gave with a cheerful heart. Her cats put a smile on her face and held a special place in her heart.

Evelyn is survived by her fiancé, Nolan David Schrader Jr. of the home; son, Charles Coates and wife Heather of Cape Carteret; sister, Pat Enrico; grandsons, Ethan Coates and Charles Coates III; and numerous nieces and nephews.

In addition to her parents, she was preceded in death by her daughter, Cynthia Coates; sons, David Coates, Charles Coates, and Edward Coates; 2 sisters; and 1 brother.
