Obituary of Shawn Evans

It is with great sadness that we announce the sudden passing of Shawn on Wednesday, April 12, 2023, at the age of 53. He will be greatly missed by his father Gordon “Junior” (Dianna) and by his sister Cindy Jenkins (Billy). Loving Uncle Shawn of Will, Sammy and Ruby. He has been reunited with his beloved mother Pierrette (2015), and will be forever missed by April and her son Brandon, as well as his relatives, friends and those in his brotherhood of Ironworkers.

At a young age Shawn worked as an ironworker and was afforded the opportunity to retire at the age of 51. Through the past few years, he enjoyed living his life snowmobiling up North in the winter and riding his beautiful motorcycles, wherever the wind took him on sunny days.

From Cindy and family; a special thank you to my ER family at the Greater Niagara General Hospital for their compassionate care towards our family. Also, great appreciation to the community of earth angels who stayed by Shawn's side during this tragedy and extended their support and kindness.

In accordance with his wishes, cremation has taken place. A celebration of Shawn’s life will be announced and held at a later date. In lieu of flowers and in honour of Shawn’s best friend, Rocky, memorial donations may be given to Niagara SPCA and Humane Society. Online condolences may be shared on Shawn's tribute page found at EssentialsNiagara.com.
