Frank Richard Evans

Frank Richard Evans, 89, passed away August 29, 2005 at his home in South Ogden of natural causes.

He was born February 10, 1916 in Randolph, Utah, the son of Oscar Jacob and Mary Adelaid Egan Evans. He was raised and educated in Ogden, graduating from Ogden High School. As a youth he worked in the fields in Randolph and delivered milk for local dairies. He made a career of working on the railroad, retiring in 1976 after more than 32 years of service. After his retirement, he worked at Smith & Edwards. It was here that he made many friends. He was dedicated to law enforcement and served as a reserve officer in the Ogden Police Department.

He was a member of the L.D.S. Church and was a high priest in the Ogden 49th Ward.

In 1956 he married Una Allred Jensen in Reno, Nevada. The marriage was later solemnized in the Salt Lake Temple. It broke his heart to lose his bride when she passed away in April 2005.

He spent many happy years at his summer home on the Star Valley Ranch in Wyoming. He was very proud of his cabin. He also took pride in his home in South Ogden which was a joy for all to see. He will be missed as he was a doting father and grandfather. His music on the harmonica will also be missed as he could play any song by ear upon request.

Surviving are his step-children, Lee Ann Atkinson (Eddie) deceased, Connie Bethel (Dale), Michael Jensen (Cis) and James Jensen (Chris). He is also survived by one daughter, Patricia and one sister, Eleanore Patterson and numerous nieces and nephews. Left behind are 21 grandchildren, 51 great-grandchildren and 2 great-great grandchildren.

He was preceded in death by his loving wife, Una, his parents, five brothers and two sisters and three grandchildren.

The family wishes to thank our father's many care providers and hospice folks who have spent many precious hours of service making our father's last days memorable.
