Evelyn Schlauer Moosher

Evelyn Schlauer Moosher, age 90, of Telford PA, passed away suddenly, on Sunday, March 9, 2025, at Grand View Hospital in Sellersville, PA. Evelyn was the daughter of the late Frank A. and Mamie Schultz Schlauer. She was predeceased by her husband of 61 years, William R. Moosher. She was also predeceased by her siblings, Frank Schlauer, Dorothy Buffardi, Albert Schlauer, and her twin sister, Elaine Schlauer.

Evelyn was a long-time resident of Huntingdon Valley, PA. In April of 2024, she moved to the Lutheran Community at Telford in Telford Pennsylvania. She thoroughly enjoyed her brief time there. The residents warmly welcomed her, and the entire staff went out of their way to ensure that all her needs were met.

Born and raised in the Burholme section of Philadelphia, Evelyn graduated from Lincoln High School. She spent summers at her family’s home in Townsends Inlet, NJ. Her father’s fishing boat at the Inlet, the Evelaine, was named after her and her twin sister. After graduation, Evelyn began working as a secretary at Rohm & Haas. She married Bill in 1957, and in 1962, they moved to Huntingdon Valley with their two young daughters. Evelyn was a long-time member of Good Shepherd Lutheran Church, Southampton, PA. She was a member of the Eastern Star and the American Quilter’s Society.

Evelyn will be dearly missed by her “quilt group” friends. The ladies met weekly and went to “quilt camp” twice a year, to socialize and work on their quilts and quilted projects.

A well-established instructor of sewing and quilting for many years, Evelyn was passionate about her craft and extremely talented. She spent several years creating quilts for children who experienced illness or trauma, participating in “Quilts for Kids”. Quilting was her favorite pastime, but she also made drapes, clothing and cushions. She was talented at knitting, crocheting and embroidery. Evelyn adored her granddaughters and so loved making smocked dresses and Halloween costumes, among other things for them.

Evelyn is survived by her daughter and son-in-law, Linda and Roger Roth, her granddaughters Laura Elizabeth and Julia Rose Roth, all of Ambler, PA; her daughter Janet Moosher of Norristown, PA; and her daughter and son-in-law, Diane and Timothy Ryan of Brandon, FL.

Relatives and friends are invited to attend Evelyn’s memorial service at 11:00 AM, on Saturday, March 15, at Central Schwenkfelder Church, 2111 Valley Forge Road, Lansdale, PA. The family will greet friends from 10:00-11:00 AM. Interment will be private at Sunset Memorial Park.
