He didn't have much money, but he had everything else. He used to write songs. He never really hit on one, but he sure had some good songs. His son-in-law, Roy Hays, hit one with Fats Dominoe, "I'm Gonna be a Wheel Someday". I have one record by Uncle Evans, "Songs for Lovers". Evans recently died with cancer. He will be missed by many.
