Gloria Faye Evans, 79, of Calhoun Falls, wife of Arthur W. Evans, passed away on Monday, September 29, 2025, at Self Regional Healthcare in Greenwood. She was born in Abbeville to the late Herbert and Mildred Moss Bonds.

Family was everything to Faye. She poured her heart into her family, enjoying the moments spent together. Her home was a place of warmth and love where memories were made.

In addition to her parents, she was preceded in death by her daughter, Tabitha Evans; five brothers, Tony Bonds, Bobby Wayne Bonds and his wife, Bobbie Mae Bonds, Marion Bonds, Ronnie Bonds and Leland Bonds; and a granddaughter, Janie Summers.
