She had a habit of questioning authority ever since.Evie graduated from Mount Mary College in Milwaukee with a degree in Occupational Therapy. She married Roy Wettstein on August 11, 1947 at Most Precious Blood Church in New London. After her husband Roy's tragic and early death she raised four children alone.The home she had made with Roy was comfortable and delightful due to Evie's creativity in decorating and celebrating holidays. The family's life was enriched by Evie's sister, Maxine, her husband Fred, and the Hammang cousins who lived just up the street. Evie's brothers and sisters-in law were faithful friends and the Wettstein and Tack cousins frequented the home. A fan of Bill Maher and Aaron Rogers, Evie's quick wit and sharp observations drew people to her. She was an avid reader and enjoyed the banter of political discourse.Survivors include daughters Nina Reyes (Oscar), Paula Sergi (Michael) and Laura Herrera (John Galaska); grandchildren Paul and Nathan Reyes, (Jenny), Gregory and Frank Sergi; great grandchildren Harper and Hayes Reyes. She is further survived by nieces and nephews.Other blessings in her life include friendships with Elaine Sullivan, Jeanne Trauger, Jeanine Gores, Jane Majeska, Julie Guell, Wanda Ross and Cathy Bell.
