Evelyn was born January 11, 1926 in Hutchinson, Kansas to Dewey and Della (DeNoon) Foster. On September 5, 1943 Evelyn was married to Norman Westerholt. They first lived in Minneapolis, MN where Norman was stationed at the Navy Airbase. In July of 1944, Norman had orders to go overseas, so Evelyn returned to Hutchinson to live with her parents.

Following her husband's discharge from the Navy, the couple moved to Norman's home area near Hooper. In 1946, she was confirmed in the Redeemer Lutheran Church in Hooper. Then in 1956, she became a member of the Bluffs Trinity Lutheran Church northwest of Fremont. In 1957, she worked part time as a sales clerk for J.C. Penney's in Fremont. Then in 1971, she went to work as a receptionist until 1985 when she became the office manager for William B. Eaton, MD. She retired in June of 1991.

Evelyn was a member for more than 50 years of Arbor Vitae Chapter 92 Order of Eastern Star of Fremont, a member of Sat-ra Temple Daughters of the Nile of Omaha, charter member of Jessie Benton Chapter of the Izaak Walton League of Fremont, and a member of the Elkhorn Valley Golf Club of Hooper.
