Mary Evelyn Teems

Evelyn Teems passed away on March 27, 2025, at the age of 88, in her hometown of Greer, South Carolina. Born on April 13, 1936, Evelyn's life was a testament to her faith-filled spirit.

Evelyn's journey through life was shared with her beloved husband, Donnie Teems, with whom she built a legacy of love and family. She was a devoted mother to her daughter, Karen Buck, and a mother-in-law to Keith. Her role as a grandmother to Kerrick Buck and his wife Jenna, and to Kayci Krause and her husband Colton, was one of her greatest joys. The family circle expanded with the arrival of her cherished great-granddaughters, Nelli Krause and Evelyn Buck.

Evelyn was the loving sister to Eugenia Brown and the late Thelma B. Blackstock, Carrie Tate, Cleve Bramlett, and Tom Bramlett. Her siblings held a special place in her heart, and their shared memories became a treasured part of her story.

Evelyn attended Ninety Six Pentecostal Holiness Church and was a woman of many interests. Evelyn found solace and joy in the simple pleasures of life. Her fingers danced over piano keys, creating music that resonated within the walls of her home, church and the hearts of her listeners. She was an avid reader and crafter. Fishing was another pastime that brought her peace, as she enjoyed life at the lake with her husband.

Evelyn's life was a beautiful tapestry woven with threads of faith. Her unwavering belief was the cornerstones of her existence. She approached every challenge with grace and every celebration with enthusiasm, embodying the essence of a life well-lived.
