Earl Felton Obituary

Earl B. Felton

Earl B. Felton passed away on April 10 with his wife of 44 years by his side. Earl was born on April 13, 1940 in Rockport, California to Bernard and Berma Felton. The family soon moved to Washington where they have resided ever since.
He attended Snohomish Schools and later enlisted in the US Air Force.
Earl is survived by his wife, Sandra; sons, Randy (Cyndi) Nidever, of Eatonville, WA and Michael Nidever, of Snohomish, WA; grandsons, Zachary (Kayla) Nidever, of Cle Elum, WA, Jesse Felton, of Snohomish, WA, Jakob and Kameron Nidever; two great-grandchildren; his mother, Berma Felton; sisters, Doris Sedenuis, Ruth (Bob) Ostrand and Eileen (Larry) Ream; and also numerous nieces and nephews. Earl had many friends and will be missed by all who knew him.
He was preceded in death by his father, Bernard Felton; and his son, Ben Felton.
Earl loved to travel with his wife and had just gotten back from Arizona where they enjoyed the winter sunshine. He also was a great mechanic and worked on almost any kind of motor. He loved VW beetles and VW diesels and kept the neighborhood cars running. He also loved to fish and did just that when we lived in Thorne Bay, Alaska.
A celebration of Earl's life will be from 11:00 a.m. to 2:00 p.m., Saturday, April 16 at Labor Hall, 2810 Lombard in Everett, WA.
