  1. Uncle Everette was always such a sweet and caring uncle. I have many happy memories of visiting
    with him, Aunt Viola, and my first cousins: Joyce, Lois, and Reba. May the family keep “all of their happy memories” of Uncle Everette in their hearts forever. Psalms 23.

  3. Dear Lois, my lifelong friend, and family: I am so very sorry to hear of your dad’s passing. We know that he is in Heaven now with your mom. They are both happy and healthy and just waiting for the rest of you to join them. Try to be happy and remember the good times. I will never forget coming to your house and playing the piano for your daddy. He loved it and I loved playing for you all. We have so many wonderful memories. Keep those in your heart and know that you will see your mom and dad again one day. My thoughts and prayers are with you all. I know it hasn’t been long since your mom went to Heaven and I guess your dad just couldn’t wait any longer to be with her. I love you my sweet friend. Praying for God to bless you all with strength and comfort.

  9. Joyce, Lois, Reba and family. We all have the fondest memories of Everette. From coming to that big house in Candler to going on picnics up on the river to the many homecomings. Everette was so soft spoken but he loved to talk. I talked to him about the old days in Madison, boy he could tell some stories. I watched him drink that very hot coffee right out of the pot and wondered what his tongue was made of. He loved his hot coffee. He will be missed but we all have the great memories. May your memories and knowledge that he can see, has no pain and he is with all your Viola and those old folks telling stories now. Love you all, keeping you close in our hearts…. Faye and Arnold Clement, Keith Clement, Cherrie Gamble, Valine Eldridge and family.
