Eva Hill Roundtree  (1906–2002)
Gospel Singer
Winston-Salem, NC

“Honey, I’m telling you the truth. Singing lifted me.”

Eva Roundtree grew up in a musical family and sang with her mother and sisters as “The Smiling Four.”  Her mother was also a fine preacher, and Eva had her own sermons: “Let God fight your battles,” she admonished.  When you think nothing’s coming your way, He’ll just move in so nice. And that’s the reason I serve the Lord. I get a blessing.”
