I just learned of Evan's passing while reading a recently received Luther College publication. Evan and I were best friends while at Luther but we lost touch after high school when we each went our separate ways in the pursuit of further education. Evan was a really good guy and a true friend. Please accept my belated condolences.

My condolences to you Luanne and family on Evan’s passing. Evan was such a beautiful person. Although we never had the chance to go on a trek together because of his illness, we spent many hours walking up and down Wascana Trails conditioning for our Treks with the Arthritis Society. I can still see him dragging that tire behind him. And the huge garage sales-he would accept people’s discards and turn them into funds for the Arthritis Society. I will miss our coffee times reminiscing about our treks and the people we met. RIP my friend.

Evan was my favourite cousin but actually was like a brother to me. We had such a great relationship over so many years.. His trips to England were always a chance to share stories over a beer. Our sense of homours were definitely on the same page. We both loved Monty Python and Gary Larson the far side. Oh and the Beatles. I never had to try with Evan. I could pick up with him anywhere anytime as if we had spoken yesterday. He called the day before he passed to say goodbye. Not goodbye he said just farewell. Miss you Evan.

Our heartfelt condolences go out to Luanne and her family. Evan was an interesting, unique and very talented individual, he was instrumental in getting me into the art world, and I thank him for that. Dean and I send prayers of comfort your way, he will be missed.

My sincere condolences to Luanne and Family on the passing of Evan. Evan and I shared many conversations and discussions from Leonard Cohen to global events and politics. He was truly a man of deep thought and knowledge, having had so many world-wide experiences. I will miss having him as a neighbour, and all our Wascana Ridge driveway chats.

Please accept my sincere condolences on Evan’s passing. I knew him for a very long time - first at Davin, then at Luther, here and there around town, and finally at the AirCanada check-in desk at the Regina airport when our schedules coincided. We always exchanged a few kind words and acknowledgment of our shared Regina history. He was a wonderful guy and I know he will be greatly missed by all.

Luanne - sending our most heartfelt sympathy to you and your family. Wishing you all strength and peace during this most difficult of times

Luanne & Family, We are so sorry & saddened to hear of Evan’s passing. Thinking of you & sending our deepest condolences.

Sending condolences to the family. Thinking of you at this time. Sorry for your loss. Mike & Lynn

My sincere condolences to the Quick family, this news was very saddening. I first met Evan in the summer of 2008 when he was assigned to be my roommate and tent mate for the Arthritis Society JIM Kilimanjaro trek. We arrived in Africa seriously jetlagged and everyone was stressed over the strict weight limits for our packs and porter bags. I ended up forgetting some key gear on my bed in our room, namely t-shirts and underwear. Evan shared with me what little he had. We became fast friends right then and there, and went on to have many other great adventures with JIM and on our own. Iceland, the TMB trek in France, trekking in Slovakia with stops in Prague and Budapest and a wonderful road trip to the US to see Fallingwater and Gettysburg. I will miss Evan dearly, we shared the same slightly dark sense of humour. Safe travels my friend, I'll see you down the road for a pint.
