    Daddy, I miss you so much already. Right now I can’t imagine how much I’m going to miss you going forward but I can assure you I already feel the void. Sister and I will watch over Mother like you asked us to do. I love you!

    Looking back at old pictures of you and I bring tears to my eyes. The pictures show how loving, caring, funny and great you were. I can’t be believe you are really gone. I miss you like crazy and think about you everyday. I have soooo many memories of us in the garden, you being my number one fan at all my sports events, me calling you to come pick me up on Saturday mornings to surprise meme and so many more that I will cherish forever. I am so glad that you got the see onions be planted one last time. Ryan and I couldn’t have had a better expert to make sure we were doing it right. I want to thank you for being such a great, silly and loving grandpa to Whit, Ry Ry, Jonna, and I. I truly believe that you watch down on us everyday, and I often find my self talking to you in reassurance that you are there. I love and miss you very much and can’t wait to see how the onions turn out. Love you pawpaw- Bird❤️

    Some say he was like a father to me, well he was more then that. John was a mentor, leader, listener, comedian, compassionate and understanding he always knew when something was wrong or not right and was always there even when he didn’t have to be. John made me feel special in his own way. He taught me to be respectful, patient to listen to others before making the wrong decision. Most of the time it work. But we all answer for our rights and wrongs in life. As far as my mother is concerned John was a good friend and always made me laugh and smile even. John you will be missed but never forgotten!

    I loved hanging out at the Everett house as a kid, teenager and as an adult. Both John and Judy made me feel welcome and it was a happy place to be. All of us neighborhood kids feel the same way. John was always smiling, always interested in what I had to say, and he told the best corny jokes ever. So blessed to have known him.

    John Everett was truly a wonderful man, husband, father and friend. He was always so welcoming to me, even when I was a pain in the neck teenager. I will always have those memories of him that make me smile. Every time I would come over he would say “Well there’s good old Shori Lanks!” I remember many nights watching Wheel of Fortune with him. I can close my eyes and be right there with him watching him eat those frog legs and that turkey loaf that was always in the kitchen. He treated me like I was family and I loved him for that. I will miss him very much!
