(USA) - Evans, 71, who ran a family practice on Route 6 in Newtown for more than 40 years before his retirement last week, regards his work in fighting AIDS as the most important aspect of his medical career. In 1987, because of his concern for people with HIV/AIDS and the impact of the epidemic on the Danbury area, Evans founded AIDS Project Greater Danbury, a nonprofit organization designed to support patients and their loved ones. Taking care of people is still on Evans' mind, even in retirement. "I don't see myself not working," said Evans, who is thinking of volunteering for Doctors Without Borders, an independent international humanitarian organization that delivers emergency disaster aid in more than 70 countries.
