Oh this is so sad. But she knew it would be soon. I
was hoping it be AFTER AGT was over. Now I really hope she
wins .It makes it bad because I really like Darci Lynne and
Angelica( think that's her name) the other really young
singer. B ut Evie has been thru so much.

This week has been the best and worst week of my life.
I'm so grateful for the memories I've made with my
family in the past year and a half. I'm so grateful for
my dad being such a great example of faith and strength. He
has endured so much and all that pain has finally come to an
end. He is in a place "12 gazillion" times better
than this and I know he is so happy there. Thank you to all
the people who have supported my family along this journey.
I love you all. I'll miss you so much, Daddy. Thanks for
teaching me to love salsa and chicken wings and most of all
the Lord. Love you lots. RIP: 9/7/17❤️
She added later in a later Instagram post "I
hope I made you proud, Daddy. I've always done it for
you and I'll do it for you forever."
"Say a
prayer, a prayer on forever Time is only now, Soon we'll
be together." I hope I made you proud, Daddy. I've
always done it for you and I'll do it for you
forever.❤️A

sang Christina Perri's "Arms" in her
audition, explaining that she sang it for Amos on the tough
days.After
her performance of Ella Henderson's
"Yours" in the semifinals on Tuesday,
the judges praised her performance."Evie,
Evie, Evie, I've said this before but you are gutsy. You
really, really are and let me tell you something: this song
is beautiful, your voice is beautiful… You made (this
song) your version. Your tone, your pitch was stunning and
laid back and let me tell you, your dad is going to be so
proud of you," said an emotional Simon Cowell."I
think we forget that you're only 13 years old and you're
already going through so much, so I have to commend you on
your courage and your confidence. You know, your voice is
beautiful, you look beautiful, and yes, your dad is so, so
proud of you," Mel B said. Evie Clair
was saved in the results show to advance to
the AGT finals, which take place September 19 on
