Addison's obituary
It is with a heavy heart that we announce the passing of Addison Evans. Born on July 6, 1986, Addison departed this life on January 18, 2024. Known for his unique character, generosity, thoughtfulness, courage, wit, and intuition, he lived his life on his own terms, inspiring those around him with his resilience and love for life.
His legacy is a testament to his hard work, unwavering perseverance, and enduring spirit. Addison was a man who never took life too seriously and embodied the principle of 'get up and keep going'.
Addison joined the United States Marine Corps in 2008, where he served 14 years with distinction. In 2011 he married his beloved wife, Randi Evans, with whom he forged a beautiful and enduring bond. They were blessed with two daughters, Drew and Addi, who were the apple of his eye. His greatest joy was “his girls”, including his dog, Holly.
Eager to put down roots and establish a home for his family, Addison and Randi purchased their first house in 2023, in Lakewood Ranch, FL; a place that represented security, love, and togetherness.
Survived by his wife Randi, daughters Addi and Drew, mother Chantay, brothers Andrew, Johnny, Steven, Johnathan, and Evan, sisters Ewanica, Alahnna, and Adrianne. Addison's memory will forever be cherished by his family.
In the last two years of his life, Addison made significant strides toward personal growth and spiritual development. He transitioned from service in the Marine Corps, purchased his first home, embraced sobriety and health, and worked on cultivating his relationship with God. These achievements not only attest to his determination but also his courage to change and evolve even in the face of adversity.
As we bid farewell to Addison, we remember a man who lived his life with grace, strength, and a unique sense of humor. His memory lives on in his loved ones and in the lessons he imparted about persistence, resilience, and the importance of not taking life too seriously.
