So sorry for your loss. May you find comfort in the words spoken at Revelation 21:3,4
(3) "With that I heard a loud voice from the throne say: “Look! The tent of God is with mankind, and he will reside with them, and they will be his people. And God himself will be with them. (4)
And he will wipe out every tear from their eyes, and death will be no more, neither will mourning nor outcry nor pain be anymore. The former things have passed away".
Ms. Wilma, We at World Services for the Blind and the Older Blind Project send our sincerest condolences for the passing of Everett. You and your family will be in our thoughts and prayers.
My thoughts and prayers are with you and your family. He will be missed.
Everett was a very friendly and likable person. He was a lot of fun when he was with us at the ASB Alumni Association reunions. I (Margaret) always enjoyed riding the Trailways bus with him up Highway 67 when we went home for school vacations. Those on the bus were Don Crow, Judy Crow, Sammy White, Danny Spears, Freddy Spears, Margaret Hayden, Ivene Trombly, Leslie Anderson, Jimmy Little, Walter Wood, Leroy Thomas, and Kenny Miller. He will be missed.
