Rodney Evans

January 9, 1957 — March 14, 2024

Rodney Alan Evans, known affectionately as Rod, passed away on March 14, 2024, at the age of 67. Born on January 9, 1957, in Milford, Utah, Rod was a humble and dedicated man, known for his loyalty and generosity. He lived a rich life in North Ogden, Utah, devoted to his family, his dogs, and his country. A retired Assistant Director in Social Work, he was deeply committed to his clients, and held a special place in his heart for mentoring young people, particularly in the outdoors. As Ralph Waldo Emerson once said, "The purpose of life is not to be happy. It is to be useful, to be honorable, to be compassionate, to have it make some difference that you have lived and lived well." This quote encapsulated Rod's life perfectly, as he lived well and made a significant difference in the lives of many. Rod is survived by his devoted wife, Janna Evans, and his sons, Ryan (Julie) Evans, Max Evans, Trevor Evans, and Chris Evans. He also leaves behind his beloved grandchildren, Kabril Evans, Kyven Evans, Raegan Phillips, Cord Phillips, Jadyn Evans, and Taylor Phillips. He was preceded in death by his parents, Gerald Evans and Dorothy Bozarth, his daughter, Megan Evans, and his nephew, Zach Smith.
