According to what Sis. Evans told Sis. Davidson, who told my mom, Bro. & Sis. E and a young minister from their church were traveling West, and stopped their motor home for the night.

When Bro. E didn't return from taking a shower, the minister went to see what was wrong, but he had already passed. My guess is his heart...

His son, Aaron, will assume the role of pastor...when they held revivals here, I always helped with the kids and Aaron was my favorite.

That was many, many years ago...

Amen...

I got up at 5 a.m., went to the Farmer's Market, and came back to make breakfast for mom, and a brother and SIL.

I'm relating my morning agenda to say that while cooking, I put on the old 25th Anniversary recording of the Singing Rambos...what great old songs and nice memories.

It is truly a loss in the sense that they are no longer with us in the flesh, but in the warm memories of revivals with Bro. Evans, and the good feeling that Dottie's great music brings, they will forever be with us.

The loss for family is separation, and I know this feeling in the death of my daddy. But it is my prayer for them that the memories and hope of a resurrection will sustain them.

I had heard that Aaron was already taking care of things so that would not be a surprise.

Aaron has been home for a couple of years now the Elder has been so sick so Aaron has done most of it. He is a good man and preacher.

Re: Roger Evans

I just spoke to Aaron he said they have not gotten to see his Dad yet, only Sis. Evens after he died. They had to go do all the formalizing he said that was hard.
The preachers speaking at the funeral so far are Elders Gilmer, Garrett, Rose, Cavaness.

WOW what a line up and I am sure a moving and great tribute to Bro Evans will be heard.
