Brother Evan was a dear friend to me, and I will certainly miss him. He accomplished many things in his life and was very successful in the many things that he did. However, in the personal conversations that I had with him, the greatest achievement of his life was when he heard and met God’s prophet, Brother William Marrion Branham. After he heard the Adoption tapes and God revealed to him that Brother Branham was His messenger, from that point, this Message was his life and nothing else mattered. Every time I spoke with him, this Message was the sole and primary focus of his heart, and he loved sharing the personal experiences he had with Brother Branham. He truly loved the Lord Jesus and this Message with all his heart, and I am looking forward to meeting him again.

Sis. Tillie we love you and are praying for you. I recall fondly the meals, prayer meetings, and fellowships we were at together. I am thankful for those years and the chance to listen to Bro. Evan relate his many memories of being with the prophet, Bro. Branham. My most special memory has to do with him giving Jared two chainsaws the very Sunday after one was stolen out of a locked truck. We had brought a homeless guy and his girlfriend to our house for some food, blankets, and Message books and tapes. It was that night the truck was broken into and the saw was taken. It made us feel at first like we were wrong to help street people because it hurt us and Jared had no saw that size and no money to buy another. That Sunday, Bro. Evan told that the Lord had laid on his heart to give two chainsaws that he was no longer using. Then we saw that the Lord had everything covered. He gives and He taketh away, blessed be the name of the Lord. We pray God’s peace, comfort, and love encircle each of you that we know and those of you we don’t know also. God bless you all.
