Obituary for Evelyn Case
Case, Evelyn (Harvey), 79, died April 14, 2015 at home in Derby, surrounded by her family. She is survived by her husband, Delbert Case, two children, two grandchildren and five great grandchildren: DeElla and Craig VanFleet (Wichita), Kevin Case and John Travers (Kansas City); Amy and John Salisbury and Lindsay and Ryan VanFleet (also of Kansas City) and Joselyn, Ella, Amelia, Katelyn and Daniel.

When her children were still at home, she was a community leader in everything from Girl Scout Cookie Sales, to Muscular Dystrophy Telethons, Derby high school fundraisers and debate tournaments. In retirement, they traveled widely together throughout Asia, Australia and Europe and her attentions turned to helping with Keenagers and Heartland Hospice.
