Sending my thoughts prayers and love to the entire Foster family. Mrs. Foster will be sorely missed and will certainly leave a big hole in all our hearts. My favorite memory is shooting hoops with her at her 90th birthday party. She was such a great athlete and more importantly such an incredible person.
I was blessed to be one of Evie Gooch’s choir directors. She was on the SPRC that hired me at City Road and she made it clear that the choir never took a break from rehearsal and should sing every Sunday. Her strong faith inspired me and so many others. She’s singing with the Saints. Praying for the family.
Evie Gooch was so kind and good. I loved talking sports with her. So sorry for the loss of a great lady. Kay Smith
Beyond sad to hear of aunt Evie Gooch’s passing. I always will remember her kindness and open smile. My love and condolences to her girls and the extended family.
My thoughts and prayers are with all the Foster family, Mrs. Foster will be sorely missed and certainly leave a big hole in our hearts. My favorite memory of Mrs. Foster is shooting hoops with her at her 90th birthday party. She was truly a great athlete and a person I always admired and loved.
So sorry for your loss.

Our thoughts and prayers to all the Foster family. I did not know Mrs. Foster but I did know her husband and our principal Mr. Foster and my husband met Mrs. Foster on several occasions when he visited Mr. Foster during his illness. I know Mrs. Foster had to be a loving, patient woman and wonderful mother to have put up with many of the "Littonites" with their stunts (my husband was one or those) and to have raised such great children into adulthood. I expect she has a special place in Heaven and is so happy to be reunited with her husband and family who were waiting for her. My husband and I feel blessed to have been part of the Litton family and by extension part of the Foster family.
