Paul Everett Obituary

Obituary published on Legacy.com by Lee-Ellena Funeral Home on Sep. 28, 2022.
Paul Edward Everett, age 75 of Macomb, passed away on September 25, 2022.
Paul was born on July 7, 1947 in Akron, Ohio to Baxter and Helen Everett. At the age of 18, Paul enlisted in the United States Army where he served his country with loyalty and dedication during the Vietnam War. After his time in the service, Paul would go on to meet the love of his life, and future bride, Donna, while she was working at a restaurant. They would marry on August 26, 1969 in a beautiful ceremony at St. Joan of Arc Catholic Church in St. Clair Shores. They would share over 53 loving years together, and raised three cherished children: Paula, Pam, and Paul. Paul was a hardworking provider for his family, working for the City of St. Clair Shores Water Department and was able to enjoy 25 years of retirement. He was a true outdoorsman, loving to be up north hunting, and spending time at his cabin and recently their Lake House with his wife, family, and friends. When Paul was younger, he enjoyed playing baseball and was on many teams during his life. Paul's spirit was strong, which allowed him to go through a double transplant for his kidney and liver eight years ago. Paul will be forever remembered by all who loved him.
Beloved Husband of Donna Everett; loving Father of Paula (Larry) Walter, Pam (Thomas) Borkowski, and Paul (Jeannie Hatten) Everett; proud Gompie of Korey Mullins, Dominic Ovando, Noah Borkowski, Sarah Everett, Allison Everett, and Kayla Hatten; best Great-Grandfather of Ethen Ovando, Selena Ovando, and Bella Ovando; Brother of Kathy Everett; Brother-in-Law of Mary Hunt, Robert (Lydia) DeYonker, Daniel DeYonker and Maxine Everett. Paul is also survived by many loving nieces, nephews, family, and countless friends.
Paul joins in heaven his parents Baxter and Helen Everett, and brother Gery Everett.
