Everett Eugene

Fish

Everett Eugene Fish, 84, of Dibble, went to be with his Lord and Savior on April 12, 2022.  The son of John Thomas Fish and Beatrice Missouri (Ray) Fish, Everett was born on December 14, 1937, in Hammon, Oklahoma.

Everett graduated from Capitol Hill High School in Oklahoma City, where he and Lavada both attended.  They married on May 31, 1956, shortly after graduating.  Everett began work at what was then called Western Electric and joined the Air National Guard.  He retired from Lucent Technology after 31 years of service.

After retirement, he and Lavada enjoyed traveling around the state helping to build new churches.  He was instrumental in starting First Baptist Church of Dibble, where he has been a long-time church member and deacon.  Everett was an outdoorsman and loved spending time at his cabin in Webber's Falls where he enjoyed hunting and fishing.  He was always "ready to go," and he and Lavada would take the grandchildren with them whenever possible. He will be greatly missed by all who knew him.

Everett is preceded in death by his parents and one sister, Betty Joan Wilson.

Everett is survived by his loving wife of 66 years, Lavada Fae Fish of Dibble; son, Odell Fish of Dibble; daughter, Debbie White and husband Grady of Dibble; four grandchildren, Bryan Palmore and wife Tracy, Kayla Hedrick and husband Brandon, Mark Palmore, and Trapper Fish and wife Natasha; eight great grandchildren, Wyatt, Noah, Eli, Harper Jo, Hixon, Caleb, Gunner, and Everly; brother, Johnny Fish and wife Sharon of Oklahoma City, and several nieces, nephews and other loving family members.
