ROTTERDAM - Charles R. "Chuck" Evans, 74, passed away at home on Tuesday, January 13, 2026,
Chuck was born in Niskayuna, the son of the late Charles and Jean (Lyons) Evans. He was a 1969 graduate of Mohonasen High School and later attended Schenectady County Community College. Chuck spent 30 years with the United States Postal Service, first as a carrier and later as a mail handler, before retiring.

Always smiling and full of gratitude, Chuck often said he was the luckiest man alive to have such a beautiful blended family, and he made sure they knew just how much they meant to him.
