Robert E. Everman, 71, of Columbia, Missouri, passed away peacefully at his home on Saturday, August 23, 2025. He was born May 27, 1954, in Ashland, Kentucky, to Lancan and Mary Everman.

Bob is survived by his loving wife of 53 years, Bette; two sons, Bobby (Andy) of Columbia, MO, and Christopher of Hallsville, MO; two grandsons, Jake (Bailey) Anderson of Aberdeen, SD, and Lansen Everman of Hallsville, MO; and four great-grandchildren. He is also survived by his parents, Lancan and Mary Everman of Rush, KY; two brothers, Mike (Pam) Everman of Rush, KY, and Dan Everman of Westwood, KY; and a sister, Lisa, whom he affectionately called "George" throughout her life.

Bob was a proud uncle to four nieces, April (Derek) Alexander of Richmond, KY, Amanda (Collin) Williams of Berea, KY, Danielle Bireley of Flatwoods, KY, and Katie Everman of Morehead, KY; and three nephews, James Thompson of Columbus, OH, and Cory and Jerod Everman of Rush, KY.

A devoted Christian of the Baptist faith, Bob was a member of Grayson Freewill Baptist Church in Grayson, KY. His family finds comfort in knowing that he is resting in the arms of his Lord and Savior.

He will be fondly remembered for his love of camping, barbecuing for family and friends, and his gift for storytelling, sharing colorful experiences from his life that brought joy and laughter to those around him.

A private family graveside service will be held on September 6, 2025, at Cribbs Hill Cemetery in Grayson, Kentucky.

Arrangements are under the care of Nelson-Millard Funeral Home in Columbia, MO, and Sparks Funeral Home in Grayson, KY.
