From there he went to the military and joined the Air Force. He married his lifelong sweetheart Sharon Mack Liddell December 22, 1954, in San Antonio, Texas.

Everette loved ice hockey and had been a season ticket holder to the Tri-City Americans since they first came here. He was a member of HAMTC Union, Richland Lutheran Church and Tri-City American Booster Club. He worked for Hanford for over 40 years before his retirement. He loved going to the Oregon Coast with his fifth wheeler. And going on the road trips with the hockey team were some of his highlights.
