CP – Lois Evans, wife of pastor Tony Evans, has died after battling a rare form of cancer, her family has revealed. Evans, the senior pastor at the Oak Cliff Fellowship Church in Dallas, Texas, wrote on Instagram that his wife was surrounded by family when she passed away the morning of Dec. 30. “Just before the sun came up this morning, the love of my life, Lois Irene Evans, transitioned from earth and watched her first sunrise from Heaven.” “I had the privilege of holding her hand as she was lulled into eternity. Our four children surrounded her as well. As she slipped away,

we told her how much we love her, how proud we are of her, and how thankful we are for the life she has lived.” “We are what we are because of her,” he continued. “Thank you so much for praying for my wife and for my family. God answered our prayers this morning by relieving her of suffering. But the truth is, He has been answering our prayers all along. Lois lived beyond medical expectations, not once, but over and over again. God has been so kind to give us more time to make wonderful memories.” Evans said that while the days ahead will be “challenging,” he is “grateful for the life and love of a woman who planted seeds that will bear fruit for generations to come.” READ MORE
