Larry David Evans Sr. (74) passed away on September 10, 2017 in Phoenix, AZ. He was the husband of Shirley Evans for over 49 years. In 1985 this young couple decided to leave Utah and bring their 5 children to Arizona where they and their children have been very happy and successful, including their last son, who was born in Arizona, to make a total of 6 children.
Born in Salt Lake City, UT, Larry was the son of Ivan Bolin, Sr. and Leda Selma Evans. He was employed as a mechanic until he retired. He will be remembered for his sense of humor, his strength, listening to his scanners and drinking Coke. He will also be remembered for the strength and work ethic he helped instill in each of his children.
Larry is survived by his wife, Shirley; his children, Larry Evans Jr, Cory Evans, Misty Whipple, Jared Evans (Lisa), Dustin Evans, Austin Evans (Naryssa); his fur baby, Layla Evans (AKA Cujo); his grandkids, Ashley, Nathan, Tyler, Autumn and Emily; his great-granddaughter, Kinsley; and all his grand fur babies.
