Obituary for Roger J. Evans
Roger J. Evans, 84, passed away on Sunday, April 23, 2023.
Born in Taylor, PA , he was a graduate of Taylor High School (Class of 1956). Roger graduated from East Stroudsburg University and received his master’s degree from Tulane University. He taught mathematics at Wyomissing Area High School for 40 years, where he also coached football from 1968 - 1973.
Left to cherish his memory are his four daughters: Cindy Boaman (Craig), Carla Evans (Barry Kasinitz), Sandy Lyon (John), and Sharon Faust (Jamie); grandchildren: Amber Boaman, Sarah Brady, London Faust, Aaron Kasinitz, Evan Lyon, Rachelle Faust, and Joshua Lyon; great grandchildren: Liam, Avery, and Abriella; and sisters, Sally Rossi and Linda Evans. Roger was preceded in death by his parents and his grandson, Drew.
Roger lived in Lake Ariel, PA, for many years where he enjoyed antiquing, spending time in the water, and socializing with his neighbors that were both family and friends. Some of his later years were spent enjoying the sun in Florida before moving to The Heritage of Green Hills where he was reunited with friends from throughout his life and made new ones who quickly grew to appreciate his companionship, stories, and generosity.
Friends and family are invited to gather on Saturday, May 6, 2023 at 11 a.m. until the time of service, which will be in the form of a Celebration of Life at 12 p.m. in Edward J. Kuhn Funeral Home, Inc. 739 Penn Avenue, West Reading, PA 19611.
