It was truly an honor to have met and visited with Mrs. Chamberlin during our times spent in Brusett. She made such an impression on me every time I sat with her and to my prodding, she would recall stories of her youth and her people. I remember once practically pleading with her to write her memories down for the generations to come and for folk such as myself that only experienced such things through movies and books. She said she did have a couple of pages somewhere – I sure hope she wrote more than that since! It did not take long to feel like I was returning to see family on our visits to Brusett. This is a testament to the sincerity and generous personality of Mrs. Chamberlin (and her family). There are many moments that are deeply seated in my memory…when we went into town together and visited the museum and stopping for lunch, a drive we took to see a friend of hers that I was unsure of meeting on my own (a funny story), me having no shame in mooching a couple of freshly baked cookies while visiting, or her laughing when I was hesitant to walk back to our cabin because the cows were milling about, to name a few. Certain people make a big impact on our lives – some for reasons that cannot be measured in one tangible event. Mrs. Chamberlin made an incredible impact on me – I thought her life was amazing (though she never thought it out of the ordinary). She embodied the words “grit” and “strength” and yet, was so kind and quick to share a smile, a cookie, or to make me laugh.
My heart goes out to all who are grieving the loss of this fine, great woman.

Curtis, Lyle, Holly, Pauline, and Roger,
We are truly sorry for your loss. Evelyn was a close neighbor all of my life. Many cups of coffee there. It was always a treat to go to the Turkey Shoot to get a piece of Evelyn’s Sour Cream Raisin pie. It was to die for. She will be missed by many.
Garth Sleight says
I had heard that Curtis’s sister had passed. My sympathies go out to the Chamberlin and Phipps families.

Evelyn Was a favorite of mine. I knew all of them during all of my growing up Years. She had a wonderful sense of humor, and I remember stopping by there with some friends and couldn’t believe all of the different colored tulips that she had. She and Curtis always come out for music when we all played and goofed around. She was very special to me and I shall miss her. Love and hugs for all of you ‘“ Kids”. Lyle Holly Pauline Roger and families!
MIKE KELLEY says
What an incredible lady. I will forever cherish the times spent at the kitchen table drinking endless cups of coffee and hearing the stories of earlier times. I will miss her but am glad she is in a better place.

Dear Chamberlin family,
My sympathy for the loss of this kind, strong, beautiful matriarch of your family. She was such a wonderful woman and steadfast part of the Brusett community. Her cooking was unsurpassed. My grandpa & grandma Tripp thought the world of both Curtis & Evalyn. As did my folks. May God give you all peace and comfort.
Chrystee Carpenter says
Evelyn Phipps Chamberlin was a remarkable woman. She was intelligent, very capable, loved life, and loved her family. She had a wonderful sense of humor. I met Evelyn in 1987. My husband, John Graham, is Cutis’s nephew. We married in 1992. We live in Kansas, 1,100 miles away from the ranch. There were many years that we visited the Chamberlin’s twice a year. Evelyn welcomed us with open arms. I remember her large vegetable garden, her canning, and her incredible cooking. She grew beautiful hollyhocks on the side of the house. She enjoyed painting rural sceneries. She liked working cross-word puzzles and reading. Evelyn helped Curtis with ranching, cutting and branding calves. Again, Evelyn was remarkable. It was an honor to attend Curtis and Evelyn’s 50th and 75th wedding anniversaries. There was a time that the men got cross-ways with each other. I would call Evelyn and we talked in secret. Thankfully, the men made amends. My sincere condolenses to Curtis, Holly, Lyle, Pauline, Roger, and their families. I really loved Evelyn and I will always remember her!
