With the passing of Everett Wayne Pardee on Friday. July 3, 2026 this life will never be the same. He was tenacious, knowledgeable about so many things and had a big heart. Everett was always there if you needed a mechanic and willingly helped people who couldn't afford to get their car fixed. He enjoyed fishing, hunting and motorcycles. His quick wit came in handy at flea markets where he ultimately got the best deal or bartered his way to it.

Everett was well respected when he worked on the rigs and most recently Waterwell Solutions - Local 150, where he retired from. In Alabama he proudly supported the motorcycle group, Riders for Riders.

Everett was born in Lansing, on May 2, 1968 to Harley and Janis (Byron) Pardee. At a young age they moved to the Barryton area where he attended Chippewa Hills. On February 19, 2000 he married Lori Hanson at the Barryton Church of God. They made their home throughout the Barryton area before moving to Alabama in 2015 where he worked as a handyman and mechanic. In 2023 Lori and Everett moved back home to be closer to family and made their home in Lake.

If it is possible, we imagine he is on his bike, with a huge smile on his face, doing something like- selling ice to Eskimos in the middle of the coldest winter.

Everett will be forever loved by those who survive him, this includes: his loving wife of 26 years, Lori of Lake; children, Zackery (Courtney) of Ithaca, Rebecka (Michael) of Holt and Kailey (Derrick) of Alabama; grandchildren, Oliver, Bonnie, Taylor, Ali, Keigyn, Marshall and Liam; his brother, Eric and his children, Jessie (Taylor) and Daniel; his sister, Deanna and her son, Harley Joe (Kendra); his faithful canine companion, Ziggy and several great nieces and nephews, cousins, extended family and friends.

Everett was preceded in death by his parents, Harley and Janis and paternal and maternal grandparents, Robin and Maude (Ankney) Pardee and Ray and Rosanna (Williams) Byron.
