Such great memories from my youngest years, as far back as late 60's, of the absolute charge of unbridled excitement I would get visiting the farm, hanging with the cows, playing with Major and at least one other Shepard and the barn cats, climbing in the hay loft and taking in the vastness of the beautiful surrounding pastures an hay fields. I felt like royalty when I visited. Thank you all so much for the memories Uncle Ev and my dad can now permanently resume goofing around together. My thoughts and sympathies are with you all. I loved him. He was a very sweet man.

Thinking about all of you, and know that you are a great support to each other. Everett was one fine husband, father, grandfather, father in law. You were lucky to have had him for so long.
Fondly,
Nancy
