Mrs. Evergene Ayers completed her 94 year life journey on Friday; January 6, 2017, at her residence at The Presbyterian Village in Austell, GA.
Born in Conyers, GA, Evergene Ayers was a resident of the Decatur area for most of her life; with the last 10 years of her residency at The Presbyterian Village of Austell, GA. She was a graduate of Atlanta Girls High School and the Greenleaf Business College of Atlanta. She was a faithful, dedicated, loving wife, mother and grandmother. She was an avid dancer in everything from jitterbug in her youth to square dancing in later years. She was a lover of people and enjoyed membership since a young adult in the "J.U.G. Club" ("Just Us Girls") which resulted in life long friendships – some approaching 80 years in duration. She was an active church woman and dedicated Christian with memberships at Oakhurst Presbyterian and Rehoboth Presbyterian Churches in Decatur, GA, and recently as a member of Trinity Presbyterian Church in Atlanta. She will be loved and missed by family and countless friends who were blessed by her friendship.
