Eyvan Drake "General" Evans, age 75, of Racine, passed away at Villa of Lincoln Park, Racine, on March 10, 2023.

Eyvan was born on April 3, 1947, in Waukegan, Il, the son of Leonard C. and Jeanne (nee: Grampovnik) Evans.

He was employed with Massey-Ferguson until it's closing.  He then became employed with UTI and owned and operated Joystick Connection.

In his younger years, he enjoyed being a magician.  To say that Eyvan enjoyed life is an understatement.
