Evelyn J. Smith • 1937- 2006 Evelyn Perzinski was born on December 17, 1937, the daughter of Joe and Pauline (Paluck) Perzinski in Belfield, ND. She was reared on a farm with her ten brothers and sisters in South Heart, ND. She attended the South Heart School. On December 30, 1985, Evelyn started to work for Trinity Homes in the Housekeeping department. She worked for over twenty years, making friends with many of the residents and employees. She was also a longtime Minot resident, living in Minot for over 40 years. She was employed at Trinity Homes at the time of her death. Evelyn was a loving mother and grandmother. She was always willing to do anything for her family. She loved to cook and was very well known for her lefse. Mom had worked very hard all of her life, and always took pride in her work. She started working on the farm when she was young, and had the same determination and pride in everything she did. She was never afraid to tackle any job, and would do it to the best of her ability. Her greatest achievement wasn't her work. In 1969, after the birth of her son, she became the world's best mother. Every effort from then on was for her to raise her son, and to be the best mom that anyone could ever dream to have. She succeeded. Her family will miss her greatly, and her presence will be felt everyday in everything we do.
