Left to cherish his memory is the love of his life of 59 years, Theresa; daughters, Gloria (Darren)and Dorothy (Omer); sons, Leo (Deana) and Larry (Mickey); as well as his grandchildren: Emmet, Ryan, Justin, Nolan, and Monique. He also leaves behind siblings: Pat, Doreen (Bill), Ken (Darlene), Mel (Margaret), and Bernard (Lynn), as well as numerous extended family and friends.

Everett was predeceased by his brother, Alf Hoffarth; his parents, Leo and Gertrude (Gertie) Hoffarth; and brother-in-law: Ted Harbidge.

Everett was born March 30,1936 on a farmstead near Simme, Saskatchewan with his six siblings and it was there that his love of farming would be imprinted on him for life. However, he made welding his career and it soon became his passion. From his humble beginnings welding provided a good living for his family and allowed him to express his creativity through design and the creation of tools and equipment. He was a devout Catholic who became a member of the Knights of Columbus at the young age of 18. Spending time with family and friends brought him great joy and they were always a priority in his life. He enjoyed volunteering on committees and giving back to the community.
