Hello everyone,

With heavy hearts, we have created this GoFundMe to help raise funds to assist with Evan’s cremation. All proceeds will go directly to his mother, Diane, during this incredibly difficult time.

On January 10, 2026, Evan “Bones” gained his wings at the age of 33, joining his father, Jim Parks, in Heaven along with other family members who have passed. Evan lived by the saying, “I’m here for a good time, not a long time,” and he truly embodied that spirit. Evan loved the outdoors, and had a passion for animals. He was always about having fun, no matter the time or place, and his unique mannerisms and infectious energy will never be forgotten.

Evan’s love for his family was deep and genuine. He was a devoted son, brother, uncle, nephew, cousin, grandson, and a loyal friend to many. He grew up in Santee, California, where he spent most of his childhood, and later lived in Temecula, California, during his young adult years. Evan lived with his mom, Diane, and close to his sister Jamie, cherishing the time he spent with family.

Evan leaves behind his mother Diane; sisters Jamie, Annika, Annaliese, and Desiree; Brother In Law Steve; Uncle Rick, Aunt May, Aunt Sue, and cousins Amy & Molly; Stepmother Rebecca; Niece Tianna; Nephew Robert “Bubby”; and Grandma Tomi, Loving dog Klaus, along with many friends and extended family who loved him dearly.

Any contribution, no matter the size, is deeply appreciated, as are your thoughts, prayers, and support during this time of loss. Thank you for helping us honor Evan’s life and ease the burden on his family.
