Tommy Evans Obituary
Mr. Evans was born on January 20, 1953, in Oxford, MS to the late Harvey Thomas Evans and Dorothy Beard Evans. Tommy had a love of learning and watched many YouTube instructional videos; whether researching NASA, learning how things are made, or how things worked, he enjoyed it all. As an avid coin collector, he could be found wandering outdoors with a metal detector in hand. Tinkering on his lawn mower was a relaxing hobby Tommy enjoyed. He truly adored his grandchildren and great-grandchild.
In addition to his parents, Mr. Evans preceded in death by his brother, William Evans, and sister, Evelyn Knighton.
He is survived by his daughter, Jennifer Johnson of Oxford, MS; his sister, Rose Jackson (Stacey); two grandchildren, Charlie Johnson, and Samantha Johnson; and great-grandchild, Evidence Fitzgerald.
