Evan Karl Donaldson passed away Sunday, July 28, 2024. He was born June 17, 1954, to Karl Maeser Donaldson Jr. and Emma S Bennett Donaldson in Logan, Utah. He was the oldest of five children. He lived most of his life in St. George, Utah.
Evan was in the starting lineup for the Dixie Flyers basketball team at Dixie High School. He loved all sports, but football was his favorite. After graduating from Dixie High School, he took classes at Dixie College. He worked as an electrician and roofer in the construction industry. His work was done with meticulous care. Contractors chose him because they knew it would be done correctly.
The things that mattered most to Evan were "Family, Friends, Fishing, and Football" and of course riding his purple 1968 Harley-Davidson which was lovingly maintained daily. Another passion was working with leather. He crafted leather saddlebags for his motorcycle and designed and made his own chaps, hats, and other leather accessories. He gave his leather creations to family and friends as gifts.
Evan is survived by his sister-in-law, Lenore Donaldson (Kenley), his sister, Linda Blackham (Ron), his brother, Val Donaldson, his sister, Karma Bell (David), daughter Michelle Kurtz, girlfriend, Debi Morrell, and numerous nieces and nephews.
He is preceded in death by his parents, Karl Maeser Donaldson Jr. and Emma S Bennett Donaldson, and brother, Kenley Bennett Donaldson.
