David Hunter Evans

David Hunter Evans, loving husband and brother, and longtime resident of Clear Lake, passed away April 3, 2023.  Born September 10, 1957, in Pasadena, Texas to Charles and Anne Evans, he was a 1976 graduate of Pasadena High School, graduate of The University of Houston (BS ‘91), and member of Clear Lake United Methodist Church.  He was an engineer by trade and was an accomplished musician.  In both performance (trombone/bass guitar) and musical recordings, David found joy and purpose throughout his life listening, playing, and recording music.  He was the biggest fan of the rock band Chicago and NHRA Drag Racing.  But nothing brought David more happiness than cheering on his Houston Cougars.

  1. Only fond memories will forever live in my heart of David and I will hold on to the beautiful cards that he drew for me and my children forever. He always had words of wisdom to share and he always knew the answer to any question I had. Debbie, I love you to the moon and back a trillion times over and I am here for whatever you need. You are never alone. There is a village of people around you that love you and are here to help you through this….

    Fly high David…..
    Play music with the angels……
    May you rest in peace and find pain no more.

  4. David will be missed Debbie. Whenever Ray and Jan left town I always had Davids’ phone number handy. I felt secure even if I did not see him I knew I could call him. You will have many lonely days, but God will get you through them. He loved his music.

  10. Our deepest sympathies go out to you. May the Lord bless you and keep you Debbie forever and always. May David find peace in Heaven above and hear beautiful music forevermore. He was such a doting son and a watchful husband. I will treasure his hand penned cards that were given to me for my birthdays. We always looked forward to our Hunter and Demona soundtracks each Christmas also.

  12. I will always remember David. Lots of times while playing the lottery at the Chevron. Having many talks about of u of h. Each convo we had would range from 5 min- 30-45 min. I will always cherish those times with him. He would talk to anyone too. Every time we’d talk, he’d be like “ I gotta get going, I’ll catch ya next time. Wife is callin me” And he’s either have to head home or run to the grocery store.

    RIP David
    Go Coogs!!!
