It has been just a month since I last saw Bro. Evans, he was telling me he had come out of retirement to do a service. I have known him since I was in high school and he was always such a kind and caring person, he will truly be missed, prayers for your family.

Warren, Damon and family I can see your father in law and grandfather was one fine man of God. I am sure you have many great times with him. Hold on to those memories and you can smile when you think of him. I know you know without a doubt Mr. Evans is with the Lord. Look to the Lord for He Is Our comforter.
Keeping you all in my prayers,

Bro. Evans was a very great man and one of the sweetest bosses I ever had. I think of him every time I hear "O Holy Night". He sang that like no one else. I will be praying for your sweet family.
