Mike Evans
1970-2020
Evans, Michael Daniel
~ It is with heavy hearts that we share the
sudden passing of Michael Evans on Monday January 13, 2020 at the age
of 49 years. Mike is cherished by his three children,
Marissa, Graham and James and by his loving parents, Janette
and John and Keith and Ellie. He is survived by his
siblings: Pam Evans, Charlene and Louis Buckley, Crystal Clark,
Jonathan and Sophia Clark, Stacy and Donnie Kennedy, Allison and Frank
Rendes; his nieces and nephews: Daniel, Sandra, Morgan, Owen, Kyrah,
Ledger, Nathaniel, Cassidy, Mackenah, Madison, Abbigail, Emerson,
Sydney, Shelby, Caitlyn and the late Alexandria; many aunts, uncles
and cousins. Mike will be missed dearly by his companion
Nicole Bastarache and her daughter Samantha and their fur babies,
Willy and Charli and will be forever loved and missed by his
children’s mom, Andrea Barrie.
Mike enjoyed spending his time watching his boys play hockey
as well as watching the Maple Leafs, going on long drives just to pick
up fish in Tobermory or going to yard sales and shopping at the
markets. For so many family dinners, he always
made sure he was there with his famous roast in hand and for steaks on
the open fire and beers at the trailer. He enjoyed the
outdoors. You would see him floating down the Grand, doing gardening,
making his grass perfect. Mike also enjoyed many family camping trips
that included close friends. He was involved in pick up
leagues, hockey and baseball and of course enjoyed a round of golf. He
had a passion for woodworking and as a result many people have his
creative pieces in their homes. The memories that
give us the biggest smiles and laughs of Mike is picturing him dance
around the entire dance floor, singing out loud to so many songs and
stomping with his brothers and friends. He loved
this line of a song “because you’re mine, I walk the
line.”
The family will host a celebration of Mike’s life
at Louie’s on Lewis, 84 Lewis Road, Guelph, on Sunday,
February 2, 2020, from 1:00 p.m. to 6:00 p.m.
