Everyl Fineday Obituary

Published by Legacy on Dec. 31, 2025.
Everyl Fineday, age 67, of Ogema, MN, passed away on Monday, December 29, 2025, at Essentia Health St. Mary's Hospital in Detroit Lakes, MN, following a courageous battle with cancer.

Everyl Jean Fineday was born on July 10, 1958, in Detroit Lakes, MN, to George Sr. and Laura (Butcher) Fineday. She grew up in the Ponsford area and attended school in Pine Point and Park Rapids, MN. Following school, Everyl worked various jobs over the years.

Family was the center of Everyl's life. She was a proud and devoted mother and grandmother who cherished every moment spent with her family. She especially enjoyed cooking meals for them and was always willing to try new recipes. She spent many hours caring for her grandchildren and enjoyed time shared with her siblings and extended family.

Everyl loved the outdoors, particularly fishing, and could often be found thrift shopping or browsing rummage sales in search of a good deal. She enjoyed gambling and playing bingo. Trips to Duluth, MN, were always a favorite and a place her called her second home. Known for her strong will, quick wit, and sense of humor, she was always ready with a joke and a smile. Everyl will be deeply missed by all who knew and loved her.

Everyl is survived by her children: Georgia "Joe" Davis (Lee), Eugene (Brittney) Davis, Alex Petite, and Robbie (Alicia) Fineday; siblings: Herbert (Mary) Fineday Sr., Nancy (Tim) Fineday, and Judith Fineday; many beloved grandchildren, great-grandchildren, nieces and nephews.

Everyl was preceded in death by her parents; daughter, Robin Davis; brothers: Lester "Spud", Douglas, Gordon Jr., JayCee, Denis, George "Coonie"; a sister, Laurie Hvezda

A Memorial Service will be held at 12:00 pm on Monday, January 5, 2026, at Everyl's Residence.
