William Evans Obituary
Gene graduated from Windsor Forest High School in 1975, then went on to spend 6 years in the United States Navy where he served as Combat System Lead Technician. Most recently, Gene worked as Senior Principal Cybersecurity Analyst for Northrop Grumman.
Gene enjoyed being involved with his grandchildren and helping them learn as much as they could. He would often do this by reading to them and teaching them about life. When he wasn't enjoying time with them, you could see him researching the bible and building his digital collection of movies and cartoons.
Gene is preceded in death by his father John Thomas Evans Jr., his mother Elizabeth Rose Palmer Evans, his brother John Thomas Evans III, his sister Mary Ellen Owen, his sister Sondra Elizabeth Rack, and his brother Robert Anthony Evans. He is survived by his brother Michael Joseph Evans, his brother James David Evans, his children Sean William Evans and Barbara Elizabeth Evans, and their mother Fiona Turnbull Brooks, and his step-son Sheldon Robert Kinsler.
