    With heartfelt condolences to Kathy, Robert, Rich and all the families. Everett was the first person I worked with at the chapel. He taught me so much about life and dealing with death. He was so kind and compassionate and had such a special way with people. He was a wonderful leader in this community in so many ways and I’m grateful and blessed to have learned from the best! He will be truly missed! Many prayers to you all.

    I am sad to hear about Everett. He was so kind to us that needed special placement at funerals. I will miss him driving through the neighborhood on his way to work.

    Our thoughts and prayers are with the Hantge Family during this very difficult time. We had many fun times over the years and many interesting conversations. We both had (and still do) fond memories of a bus trip to Nashville that will never be forgotten!!!! Peace be with you.

    Sympathies to Everett’s family. He was such a nice man. Always enjoyed stopping to chat with him. He was a very nice caring man and you could see that carried over to his sons. He will be missed.

    Great memories of Everett from my time serving on the board of the MFDA. His calmness, wisdom, passion and commitment to excellence was admired by those of us in funeral service.
