Vicki mitchell - try this. I read a comment from her sister today one the Campbell Live FB page. Hope you both have or do get back in touch.

What a beautiful, sweet girl with a beautiful heart. So wise beyond her years and an example to us all. Shame on those people who were cruel and heartless to her. Eve and her family are nothing short of amazing!

In 1985 Eve, Gloria and her family came to our church St Matthews in Manly Sydney. After we went for dinner and in hearing about Eve being forced to stay home my wife and I gave money to help make Eve's bedroom a nice place to spend her days. Years later after Eve passed away I was asked to be the chairman of the Angel Eve Trust whose funds were used for the same thing- making the lives of those with terminal illnesses better. In all the years I have known Eve's family I have been endlessly overwhelmed with their love and dedication to giving and caring for others despite so major obstacles. Perhaps the lesson I learnt from seeing that was realising love is worth more than money. Those of us can give financially but the grater gift is giving oneself. Rest in Peace Eve- you were a beautiful person who gave so much and you will forever be in our hearts xxx

I had the pleasure of knowing eve by being best friends with her sister Dana when they lived in Berkeley vale. I was only about 12 at the time but remember some fun times with the family and having a lot of fun with my best friend. Their move was so quick and I never got to say bye to them. I would love to say hi to my old friend Dana. I am glad that their family was welcomed to new Zealand. They where a wonderful family with two wonderful daughters. They where kind to me and I was always welcome in their home. Dana, if you get this message I would love to catch up. I have thought about you over the years and have always wondered how your life turned out. I have included my email. Hope we can catch up. Vicki Mitchell

Such a heart-wrenching story. i only managed to catch the last 20 mins last night on sky TVs Heartlands (channel 17) and i could not believe how beautiful and brave she was considering her illness. Rest in peace beautiful. xx

I was living near Kincumber in 1985 when Eve's story broke and remember the disgusting manner in which people of the area behaved - it was nothing short of shameful. It was understandable that people were concerned and unsure about the risk Eve posed, but many people went out of their way to be vile towards the family. I even saw Mrs van Grafhorst in Gosford with little Eve outside a shop and Eve was playing on a coin-operated ride...a passer-by spat at Mrs van Grafhorst then walked on. RIP Eve, you were worth far more than those who ran you out of town.

We did not hear much about Eve after she left Aus and have just found out when she passed away. A very brave little girl who made a great many people aware that you cannot catch HIV/AIDS just by touching someone. I would like at some time to watch the whole of the programme rather than just this short bit that I have.
