KATHERINE EVANS

EVANS--Katherine Robin Wong. Six months ago today Katherine Robin Wong Evans died unexpectedly of a stroke on June 19, 2021. She was 53. Robin was born in Los Angeles on July 11, 1967 where she attended Immaculate Heart High School and Harvey Mudd College. After college Robin worked as a white-water rafting guide in California, a ski lift operator in Utah, an environmental technician on Alaska's North Slope, and as a product designer at REI in Seattle. It was there that she began dating her future husband Robert and within a few years they quit their jobs to backpack across Europe and Asia. They moved to San Francisco in 1997 and made many friends as they explored the city together. In 1998 Robert and Robin became husband and wife. In 2001 they started their family. Robin became a devoted mother and a prominent parent at the International High School her children attended. Her home was a center of that community, with many dinners and parties thrown over the years. Robin was fortunate to be able to spend her summers in Hawaii and winters in Tahoe where she shared her love of the outdoors with her family. Robin was a maker, always designing and crafting. She was known among her friends for her warmth, her wisdom, and her smile. Robin and Robert were planning their next adventure as their children went off to college. She is survived by her husband Robert, her daughter Clements, her son Liberty, and by many friends and family. There are no words with which to express our loss. But we take comfort knowing that she lived her life to the fullest and had few regrets. She is loved and she is missed.
