IN MEMORIAM - DONALD ELWOOD EVANS

IN MEMORIAM

I'm sad today to hear about

the passing away of Mr. Donald Elwood Evans.

My heartfelt sympathies go out

to all bereaved family members.

May fond memories that you all once shared

 in happier times in the days gone by bring you comfort.

May his soul rest in eternal peace. 

I've been very fortunate to have met Don Evans
during the time when my wife and I attended
Lori and Dave's wedding in Medford, Oregon.
We also had the opportunity to visit him at his place.
He took great pride to show us his impressive

and extensive memorabilia over the years

that he kindly and proudly let me photograph.

The unique, exuberant and cheerful way in which he told

about his life's experiences had me spellbound.

The photographic collection on the walls said it all

 and bore testimony to his narrative
with a dash of humor and wit thrown in -

from the tub bass he made
to horses and classic automobiles.

It was like being in a museum

of a life that he happily lived to the full
and a family he dearly loved

- a life of a true gentleman - 

gone, but not forgotten.

We will miss you.

REST IN HEAVENLY PEACE 

MR. DON EVANS

MOONSET FOR TODAY
