GREAT MAN GIVES FAMILY ONE LAST LAUGH Leesburg, FL- Musician and Water Park extraordinaire, Howard Everson passed away on April 1st, 2022. The lifelong jokester left this world on April Fools Day, giving him the last laugh! Howard was born on June 15, 1954 in Blossburg, PA to Jean & Howard Everson. Howard is survived by his loving wife of 41 years, Teri, his daughters, Niki Everson and Stephanie Hutchison, his 3 grandchildren Brayden, Sophia, and Collin & his sister Alice Meyer. Howard was predeceased by his parents Jean & Howard Everson, and his brother Richard Everson. Howard was a devoted husband, brother, father, uncle and grandfather. He loved to travel & enjoyed hiking & fishing in the mountains. Howard loved to use his hands and build anything with his kids and grandkids. From homemade skateboards to RC cars & planes and drones. There's nothing he wouldn't do to make everyone happy. Howard was a great musician and loved to "jam" with the band or anyone that was interested. He had a great singing voice (that he passed along to his youngest daughter, Stephanie). As a self-taught musician, he could play the guitar and harmonica like one of the greatest! Howard was a fixer and never let anything stay broken for long. His skills were bar none and coming to his daughters' rescue was his specialty! His talents were used by all the kids in the neighborhood when his daughters were growing up. Everyone knew to go to Howie when something was broken. A Celebration of his Life will be held on Tuesday, April 5, 2022 at Beyers Funeral Home, 1123 W Main St, Leesburg FL 34748. A visitation for family and friends will begin at 10:30 with his service starting at 11:30.
