John and I both started at "Belt Line" before ninth grade. We competed against each other for the same position in football, sometimes in the game at the same time. As a running back he was very fast and very quick. We also competed in track. We hung around each other a good bit in ninth and tenth grades. It is a shame that injuries cut short his sports career.

John was genuinely one of the really nice guys. I enjoyed hanging around with him. Very good athlete and very fast. If my memory serves me right John and David Cordell were the fastest guys in town. I had to run a race against them both at a track meet. Gun went off I looked up as I came out of the blocks and all I see is their back sides immediately. RIP John Evans

John was my roomate in college and was a groomsman in my wedding. We had some fun times together over the years. I will miss him.
