Born to John Reese Evans and Catherine Estella Durfee Evans. Lona had fond memories of her early life in Arizona.

Their family grew to include 36 grandchildren, 58 great-grandchildren, and 1 great-great-grandchild.

She found joy in gardening, sewing, singing, baking, and collecting cookbooks. A devoted member of the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints, Lona held various callings, including Relief Society President and serving a Family History Mission in Chicago with her husband, Evan.
