Life’s Reflections of Evan
Memories are treasures no one can steal. Death is a heartache no one can heal. Some may forget that you are gone, but we will remember no matter how long. We miss you more. Your
loving smile, your gentle face.

Evan attended Northwestern High School in Flint, Michigan and graduated in 1986. Evan was the ultimate entrepreneur. If it could be sold, he would sell it. Anything from candy to clothes. He had a great love for cars, especially classics and even owned a couple. Evan had a great admiration for dogs and has owned many. He always was sure to have one close.
