Commemorating 50 Remarkable Years of Eva Mae Wilkes

As many of you may know, longtime VP Saint Louis seamstress Eva Wilkes passed peacefully on Saturday, April 6, 2024. If you ever wore a costume for the parade, ball or member’s meeting, Eva touched that garment with simple fixes, cleaning, ironing or many other tasks. In 2023 she celebrated her 50th anniversary with the organization. We are grateful for all the work she put into running our costume department.

This GoFundMe allows members to make a contribution to Eva’s family. All funds will go directly to her living relatives. Your contribution, no matter the size, will serve as a token of our collective appreciation for Eva's tireless efforts.

Your support will go a long way in honoring her legacy and ensuring her family feels the love and recognition she truly deserves.

Thank you for your generosity and for making a difference in the life of someone who has made such a significant impact on VP Saint Louis.
