Richard Evans Obituary

Richard Evans

Peacefully passed away surrounded by family July 25, 2021. Rick died from Covid. BELIEVE SCIENCE, GET VACCINATED, WEAR A MASK. Almost 80 years old Rick loved life and his family, Carolyn his wife & dancing partner of 35 years and his four amazing daughters, Anita, Beth, Katy & Karoline, sons in law Bobby & Danny, 7 grandchildren, brother Charles.

Rick loved his various careers from the Navy to Hi-tech and assisting his wife in real estate. Rick was incredibly kind. His greatest contribution was his ability to guide friends and family with salient wisdom - Rick was the go-to guy when you needed guidance. Quick witted and very funny Rick was a joy to be around. If you needed a leg up in life, Rick was the man.

We had planned to celebrate Rick's life with vaccinated friends and family at an outdoor socially distanced garden brunch but with the surge in Covid cases in Florida and especially Volusia and Seminole counties it is safest to wait until later in the year. Rick's favorite charity is the Salvation Army in Sanford Fl.
