Obituary

Evans has embarked on his final journey to eternity, passing peacefully at home, surrounded by his loving family. The world will be a little quieter without his wisdom, laughter, and advice. Lawyer. Entrepreneur. Pilot of 1500hrs. Rotarian. Veteran. Community Leader. Conservative. Lifelong Learner. In the 1960s, Evans established a law practice in The Pas, Manitoba. Flying into remote communities, he would unfold his collapsible bicycle and ride to the local café, ready to assist those in need. Recognizing the lack of legal aid in Northern Manitoba, he fought tirelessly to implement a system that would serve the underserved. Evans entrepreneurial spirit took him from law to real estate and development, where he built a lasting legacy with apartment buildings, The Wescana Inn, and at 92, successfully negotiated the purchase of a shopping mall. He remained endlessly curious—golfing weekly, signing up for voice lessons, woodworking, growing a beard. His thirst for knowledge and new experiences never faded. A proud Rotarian for 65 years, Evans earned four Paul Harris Awards and was an active member of the Eastern Star, Masonic Lodge, and Shriners. His faith was a cornerstone of his life, and the United Church provided him with inspiration and fellowship. Above all, his greatest joy was family. With his beloved Mardene, he raised four strong, independent daughters: Lynn of Richmond, Carol (Cam) of Winnipeg, Lisa (Alan) of The Pas, and Marla (Dan) of Lillooet. He was a devoted grandfather to Evan (Kira), Nikki, Ryan (Lauren), Adam, Jarvis, Kali, Austin, Ethan (Jessica), and Jacob, always eager to hear their stories and offer guidance. Evans lived by his mother's values: be honest, be kind, and help others. He was a man of integrityand generosity, leaving a profound impact on everyone he met.
