March 21, 1945 – September 3, 2022. Mary Evelyn Chastain Pounds, a lifelong resident of Cobb County, was born on March 21, 1945, and went home to be with the Lord on September 3, 2022.

She is predeceased by her sisters Clara Champion, Linda Arnett, and brother Howard Felton Chastain Jr. She was an amazing Mom, a doting Grandmom, and one of the best human beings we knew. Anyone who met her knew of her love for Jesus and experienced a grace-filled compassion that is difficult to find in this world. Evelyn was a member of First Baptist Church Woodstock. She loved her Sunday School Class, Vintage Club neighbors, lifelong friends, and most of all, her family. She loved spending time with her family and cooking special foods for them. She also enjoyed reading, nature walking, genealogy research, writing family stories, Jekyll Island getaways with her sister Frances, and special trips with her sons' families to places like San Francisco, New York, Vermont, and the beach. She will be remembered for the lasting spiritual legacy she has left to her friends and family.
