Please accept our deepest sympathy for the loss your father. I knew Everett through Joe and Barbara Wiggin. I remember Everett's great laugh and how he always greeted people with a huge smile. He was a gentle soul and will be greatly missed.

Sincere sympathy in the loss of your father. We often stopped to say hello to your Mom and Dad over the years. In the last couple of years we stopped at his new home in New London....he seemed so happy there and so pleased to see us when we made our surprise visits. He was a special friend to all the Ordways.
Sincerely,
Ralph and Eleanor Ordway
