Shawn R. Evans

Shawn Robert Evans, age 52, husband of Kristin Ruth (Reist) Evans, of Elverson, PA, passed away peacefully on the evening of Friday, August 20, 2021. Born on October 7, 1968 in Phoenixville, PA, he was a son of Sandra (Miller) Evans of Douglassville, PA, and the late William Clayton Evans. A business owner and professional steel erector by trade, Shawn was a family man first to his beloved wife of 24 years and two daughters. Never one to be found in a mall, he was an avid outdoorsman who enjoyed hiking, mountain and road biking, hunting, kayaking and fishing. His interests also included photography as well as rock climbing in his younger years. Shawn loved taking family trips to the Rocky Mountains in Colorado, and took special pride in sharing his passion of the outdoors with his wife, daughters, family and friends. Shawn, who had a servant's heart, will be remembered for his deep compassion for those he was close to, his love of all things nature, and his beaming smile, which could light up a room. After attending Spring-Ford High School until his Junior year, Shawn graduated from Owen J. Roberts High School in Pottstown, PA. He owned and operated Kendall Morgan Contractors, a steel erecting company he named after his two daughters. He was a member of the Spring-Ford Lodge #553, as well as the Northern Chester County Sportsmen's Club. In addition to his wife, Shawn is survived by his loving daughters, Morgan I. Evans and Kendall B. Evans; three siblings, Mark Evans of Hereford, PA, Sharon, wife of Brian Magee of Douglassville, PA, and Michael, husband of Alicia Evans of Perkiomenville, PA; four nieces and nephews, Nicole, Mark "Zach", Amanda, and Michael; Uncle John Miller, husband of Crystal; In-laws, Randolph and Mary Reist; and his cousin-in-law, Susan, wife of Alexander Steis. Relatives and friends are invited to attend his memorial and Masonic service at the Providence Church of the Brethren, 1202 S. Township Line Road, Royersford, PA, on Saturday, August 28, 2021 at 11:15 am. Burial will be held privately at the convenience of the family.
