Del was truly my best friend. When I was a teenager in high school Del worked for my father His son Jeff and I walked to school each day and as I returned each day I would stop in the warehouse to talk to del. I will never forget the day I walked home alone his son Jeff didn't join me though he had been with me that morning. As I walked in the warehouse to check on del I will never forget the face I saw as I learned his wife had left him and taken everything including his children. The giant of a man was the biggest crushed soul I had ever seen or experienced. That was the last time I ever saw my fried jeff It was heart breaking to watch but del was a man of God and through the trails he leaned on his god Jehovah.
His faith grew stronger and as time passed and he settled into single life again he met a woman by the name of Ali who had 3 young children and he fell head over heels in love. There is no man that would ever had been able to tackle the job of being a step dad with that new family better than del, he was kimd, patient, leaned on god, cried, did I mention cried and as time passed he did not demand their respect he earned it. His family accepted him as their own and loved him like no other he was indeed blood.
When he worked for the banking company fixing machines he and I would talk everyday on our cell phones, he complained he had to up his plan cause I took to much of his air time, I taught him to text he kicked and screamed but eventually joined the rest of the world. I also taught him to sell on ebay something he became very good at over the years and the funny thing was when I would go over to his house and he would be wearing a strange piece of clothing or off colored crocks it was always something he had bought and could not sell he was never one to waste. We he retired a part of me died the daily doses of dell were gone and he used his time to preach and love his family and grand kids.
He was truly my best friend we both spent countless hours in each others basements talking, crying, praying and planning. He spent the last year's preparing for his death taking care of what Ali would need when he was gone he truly loved his wife and family.
The thing that saddens me the most is not being able to carry out his wish and take care of his memorial service. I allowed Satan to beat me at his game, I feel it is the greatest gift you can give a person is to tell the story of a faithful persons life, allow people to grasp the person they were and to celebrate their life and follow their example.
I served with del as a fellow elder for 27 years and I know del was a righteous and forgiving man so when that day comes he is resurrected I plan on being like Peter who denied Jesus three times the night of his death. When he saw the Lord on the shore he jumped naked in the sea and swam over to his lord who accepted Peter for the weak human he had been. So when I see del for the first time please get out of my way I have some unfinished business to care for I plan on having my clothes on but there is no gurantee.
I will always love you del and will love the family you left behind and do my best to care for them as that's what true friends, true brother's, true Christians do.
Forever in my heart and soul
Dave

Del Evans was a wonderful & loving Christian brother. He always had a warm smile & was ready to lend a helping hand. Although we knew his children & grandchildren better, they always spoke very highly of Del & loved him dearly. Brother Del will be missed by many & lived a life of integrity to Jehovah. He is now resting safely in Jah's memory & we can't wait to see him again in the paradise!!
Our deepest condolences to his loved ones. May they continue to find peace & comfort in Jah's promises. We love you all very much!♡♡

I am so sorry to hear this. I am glad Sarah the boys and I were able to see him a few months ago after so many years. I will always remember his kindness, soft humor, and just wbeing a wonderful brother, elder, and friend. I have already told so many brothers and sisters down here about your staying firm to not use blood and how because of it even the Dr could recognize without it you have live longer and better than if you had. More importantly you gave a reply to the one taunting him, and Praised Jehovah's name sharing him with all the drs and all the ones they might need to work on in the future. Ali Tommy Lexi and Erin my prayers are with you all. I know how much it hurts, even though we know he will be back on this earth in perfect health, it still hurts not having him there for you now. I know I am not saying anything you haven't heard a thousand times, but one more won't hurt. I love you all and can't wait till all our families can be reunited with our loved ones that have already left us, and eachother.

He certainly was a good man and you could see it in the love he gave to his family and the congregations. I so appreciated the warmth and feeling he put into the talks he gave at our Kingdom Hall. May Jehovah continue to support you in this difficult time of your loss and keep you strong to endure to the end when we will all get to see those we love so much in perfect health.

Even though we have the marvelous hope of the resurrection and being with our love ones again, death is an enemy. Del is an awesome brother and set a great example of what a true worshiper of Jehovah truly is. Your family is in our thoughts and prayers. May the memories, your friends and family, and the promise of being with him soon make you smile and help comfort you all. Thinking of you especially Pierce, love you all!

Our sincere sympathy to the whole Evans family in the loss of a wonderful husband, father, grandfather, spiritual man, congregation leader, friend, and whatever words one could use to describe Del.
He will be sadly missed but his example will live on. Del's strong faith and his love for our heavenly creator, Jehovah God, is left behind as an example for all of us to strive for. Likewise Del's belief that Jehovah will soon replace this system of things ruled by Satan and bring about a righteous system with no more badness, sickness and death as well as a resurrection of those who died faithful to our God, Jehovah, led Del to set an example for us all that a close relationship with Jehovah is the most important thing we must develop in each of our lives.
He fought the fine fight and now rests from sickness and pain until the resurrection when he will be reunited with those he loved and who loved him. Until that time we will miss him. Love to you all. Barb & Rell
