METAIRIE, La. - In the backyard of their stately Old Metairie Mansion, Saints Fullback Heath Evans effortlessly tosses daughter Eva into a cloudless sky. She drops into his waiting arms confident that Daddy will always be there to catch her and to protect her, that’s what Daddies do, don’t they?

On the sunbaked fields of his native South Florida, Evans oversees an annual Seven on Seven High School Flag Football Championship that benefits his foundation. His wife Beth Ann, radiant, on the sidelines

“He’s really taken this foundation and just run with it, he’s really been the one to step out,” said Evan’s wife, Beth Ann.

On a gorgeous April evening on Airline Drive, a Saints Softball game adds upwards of $100,000 to the foundation’s coffers. Beth Ann supports Heath largely in silence. He provides her voice and that of millions of women like her. It’s April, a month of reawakening, of rebirth, of new life, but for Heath and Beth Ann Evans it has a much different significance, April is National Child Abuse Prevention Month.

	Everyone is entitled to be stupid, but some abuse the privilege. All little common sense goes a long way. Last edited by papz; 12-24-2011 at 06:47 PM..
