BAYER Evelyn Bayer (née Mistetzky) passed peace-
fully in her sleep on Saturday morning,
November 28th at 97 years old. She was the
daughter of Joseph and Fannie Mistetzky,
and the youngest sister of Norman, Sam,
Luba, and Masha. She was the wife of Jack
Bayer. Evelyn is survived by her beloved sons
Dennis (Aggie), Todd (Carolyn), Mitchell(Hil-
ary), and grandchildren Jonah (Victoria),
Vanessa, Brooke, and Alex. Born in Cleve-
land, Ohio, Evelyn was the only American
born in a family of Russian immigrants.
Watching her father build homes and later
her parents both run a small grocery, Evelyn
came to know the promise of the American
dream and the values of hard work and self-
determination. Evelyn met her sweetheart,
Jack Bayer, as a teenager, and the couple en-
joyed a loving 61-year marriage before Jack’s
passing in 2006. They raised their three sons
in Shaker Heights, Ohio, before relocating to
Philadelphia, Pennsylvania in 1968. There
Evelyn set up a home and quickly adjusted to
a new life in a new city. She spent this next
chapter of her life traveling abroad with her
doting husband, whose position as president
of an international corporation took the
couple all over the world. It was during these
travels that Evelyn’s wit, style, and curiosity
helped turn business associations into genu-
ine lifelong connections. Evelyn made friends
wherever they went, and she had a story
about practically any city or country that you
could name. Until her last days, Evelyn’s
memory remained remarkably sharp. From
boat rides in Capri to nights in Egypt during
the 1970s, she could readily recall the most
granular details of her life. A Cleveland girl at
heart, she saw herself as a Midwesterner and
considered Cleveland her true home. Still,
Evelyn embraced her life in Philadelphia,
where she and Jack enjoyed years of love and
laughter surrounded by friends and family at
their home down the shore and at dinners at
the former Locust Club. Evelyn and Jack were
active sponsors of the Greater Philadelphia
chapter of the Crohn’s and Colitis Founda-
tion. Evelyn was a woman of phenomenal
taste, sharp humor, and understated eleg-
ance. Nothing gave her more joy than a good
mystery book, movie, or TV show. She was a
proud mother, adoring grandmother, and a
loving wife. The Bayer family welcomes
donations in Evelyn’s name to either the
Crohn’s and Colitis Foundation
Philadelphia/Delaware Valley Chapter, or the
Jewish Family & Children Services, www.jfc-
