Born on January 11, 1956, in the state of Washington, Evans had a lifelong love for vintage toy collecting and the thrill of metal detecting. A man of deep faith, he loved God and his church, and found great joy in singing hymns.

He was preceded in death by his father, Earl Alfred Fowlkes Sr.; his mother, Mary Frederick Fowlkes; and his nephew, John Kabakjian Jr.

Evans is survived by his brother, Earl A. Fowlkes Jr., and his wife, Phyllis; his sister, Debra Miller, and her husband, Vernon; his sister, Donna Kabakjian, and her husband, John; as well as many loving nieces, nephews, great-nieces, and great-nephews.

The family will not be holding a funeral service at this time.

Evans will be remembered for his gentle spirit, his joyful songs, and the way he brought warmth and kindness to all who knew him.
