Everett was born on December 2, 1939, to Floyd and Evelyn Williams in Sidney, Montana. Everett attended Roberts school until sixth grade when he then went into Lambert and graduated from Lambert school in 1958. After high school, he attended college in Havre, Montana.
Everett married Sharon DeVoir in Billings, Montana on December 17, 1960. They started their married life back on the family farm north of Lambert where they raised their three children; Kathleen, Coleen, and Daniel. During this time, Everett also worked for Hines Implement, did carpentry work, and custom harvesting with the Red Carpet Harvesters.
While Everett enjoyed his children, his true pride and joy were his grandchildren and great-grandchildren. Everett and Sharon enjoyed many sports events, namely basketball and football games with their children and grandchildren as the Lambert Lions. In later years, the Montana Grizzlies were their passion. They also enjoyed fishing in the area lakes. After spending several years fishing at Lake Sakakawea and Fort Peck, Everett and Sharon eventually got a summer home at Fort Peck to enjoy.
Everett also enjoyed driving and working on stock cars with his son-in-law, Russel. Everett spent countless hours restoring his brother Dean’s 1954 Oldsmobile, which he really enjoyed driving in the Lambert 4th of July Parade.
Everett served on the Lambert School Board, Lambert Elevator Board, Lambert Lion’s Den Board, and was a member of the First Lutheran Church of Lambert and Missoula GSA.
Everett is survived by his three children Kathleen (Russel Thornton), Coleen (Kip Swearingen), and Daniel Williams; grandchildren Amanda Wambolt (Freddie), Cole Thornton (Jana), Ross Thornton, Sheridan Dean (Parker) and Amelia Williams (Teagan Hummer; and great-grandchildren Karlee Wambolt, Kyler Wambolt, Cohen Thornton, and Quinn Thornton.
He was preceded in death by his wife, Sharon; parents Floyd and Evelyn Williams; in-laws Patrick and Ann DeVoir; and his brother Dean Williams.
