Everett was a "one of a kind" guy. I was/am greatful to have spent his last few months on this earth as his caregiver. Through the small few moments where he was fully open and honest, I learned he was in fact a Christian and believed he would forever walk with our savior. May this small tidbit of knowledge comfort his family during this time.
