Evenson
Connor Evenson, 19, of Priest River, Idaho, was called home to be with his Lord and Savior, Jesus Christ, on Easter night, April 20, 2025. Born on Christmas Eve, Connor was a beloved son, brother, grandson, nephew, cousin and friend whose radiant spirit and unwavering faith touched all who knew him.
From a young age, Connor’s life was a testament to his deep love for Jesus, and his commitment to his faith was evident in everything he did. He lived with kindness, humility and a servant’s heart, always ready to lend a helping hand or share an encouraging word. His joy was contagious, and his laughter could light up any room.
Connor’s passion and what brought him pure joy was his job at the Salvation Army Kroc Center in Coeur d’Alene. Anyone who had the joy of witnessing Connor’s work at the Kroc Center would agree that he did everything with a true sense of happiness. Connor had a genuine heart for service, particularly shining when checking in members for group exercise classes. Connor had a remarkable ability to connect with people, making them feel the love of Christ in a profound way. His affection for the Kroc was evident; he treated it like it was his own child. This passion is reflected in his exceptional work ethic, consistently exceeding expectations not only in his own role but also in helping co-workers within the whole Kroc Center. Connor’s joy was felt throughout the whole Kroc Center, whether he was dancing, cleaning machines, filling bottles or doing any small tasks, Connor was always happy and ready to help.
He is survived by his loving parents, Joseph and Juliana Evenson; his sister, Kylie Davis, and her husband, Conner Davis; his niece, Skylar; his grandparents; and numerous aunts, uncles, cousins and friends who will miss him dearly.
A celebration of Connor’s life will be held May 3 at 10 a.m. at the Kroc Center Worship Theater in Coeur d’Alene. We will honor his memory and the profound impact he had on our lives. All are welcome to attend and share in remembering the beautiful life Connor lived.
