Evelyn was born July 14, 1913, at Superior, Wisconsin, to John and Lillian Madden Pollock. She studied nursing at Washington Missionary College in Maryland until she met Nevins M. Harlan, a young Seventh-day Adventist ministerial student. They began 62 years of marriage on June 26, 1939. She spent the next 45+ years by his side in active ministry in Georgia; Tennessee; Florida; Superior and Milton, Wisconsin; Duluth and St. Paul, Minnesota; and Sunnyside and Walla Walla, Washington. She often enhanced many of his sermons with colored chalk illustrations of the Old Rugged Cross and other religious themes.
She was an accomplished musician, playing both piano and organ and occasionally blending her alto voice with his rich bass voice. Evelyn loved people and kept up an active correspondence with her many friends through the years. She loved her home and family. She loved to sew, crochet, knit, bake, garden, write and preserve family history. She enjoyed art, poetry, and reading. She read her Bible daily.
She fulfilled a life-long dream of becoming a Registered Nurse when she graduated from Yakima Valley College in 1966.
Evelyn trusted Jesus Christ and looked forward to His Second Coming, His gift of eternal life, and being with her beloved Nevins again.
