Evelyn 'Ev' Janet Schooling (26 Jan 1939 - 17 May 2026)

A real character who will be sorely missed throughout the bowls fraternity and beyond. R.I.P. Ev xx

It has been a pleasure to have known you over many years and your achievements in the world of bowls.
Our thoughts are with you John and your family at this difficult time.
John and Carole

It was lovely knowing you Ev. You were a good neighbour with a great sense of humour, and were always interested in the welfare of my pets.
Rest in peace Ev. God bless.

So much part of our teenage years. Numerous evenings at her house enjoying tea, coffee and cake and kind and gentle friendship. Nuturing us in our Christian lives. Great sense of fun

When we moved into the close Ev was the first person to come to our door with a plant to welcome us. She and John have always been generous with their friendship and Ev will be missed. She is at home with her Lord xx

I am so sorry not to be able to attend the service at Leigh Road Baptist due to a prior commitment. My wife Meg loved Ev ever since they met at a Teachers Training College in Streatham in 1957. Ev had a beautiful voice and she sang at our wedding and at our 25th wedding anniversary. She was such fun to be with and was quite mischievous at times playing tricks on different friends. It was a joy to have her with us on one of tho tours I led to Israel. She will be greatly missed by all who knew her.

In memory of a wonderful lady with love from Tony and Angela

Sleep tight Ev, was always a pleasure to catch up with you and John,
Love Karl

Ev, we met John & yourself on a beautiful Norwegian fjord cruise in 2008. We would have loved to maintain personal contact since, but the tyranny of distance and our own health issues didn't permit such. But since then we have kept updated through regular email contact.
Great to have met you, RIP Ev. John - be strong.
