Dear Everett - what a pleasure it was to find you and Mary, through genealogy. You were the cousin my father Vern never had the chance to meet. I thank you for the beautiful copper roses and other work you sent to me and my girls, we will cherish them always. May you rest in peace, with love, always, Laura.##imported-begin##Laura Dean Kindred LaMalva##imported-end##

Everett Kindred exemplified everything a grandfather should be. He was the most moral man I’ve known, and I will always admire and looked up to him. Love, David Wiley##imported-begin##David Wiley##imported-end##
I met him just a few times, more than 50 years ago, but knowing he served in World War II makes him a hero in by book. My thoughts and prayers are with his family.##imported-begin##Chris West##imported-end##

Everett Lionel Kindred was, simply put, the most selfless, loving, caring, gentile, and genuine man that I’ve ever known. We loved each-other so much, that even in the rare quiet times there was always an underlying serenity, love, and understanding any time we were around each other. It could just be my perception as his grandson, but I think others will concur with me.... :-) Grandpa Kindred (as we lovingly called him), patiently taught me everything from how to tie a knot, to how to fix a lawnmower, and (most importantly) how to properly, (and respectfully) chase women.
Grandpa loved to brighten everyone else’s day in very simple, yet elegant ways. From the copper roses that he made, the wind-chimes that he crafted, and the model train sets that he meticulously, and painstakingly toiled over. He rarely thought of himself, and never complained except to apologize when he just physically couldn’t manage doing certain things anymore. Grandpa was always someone that would listen to me, and was one of the few people I knew would never be judgemental. No matter what.
The stories that he shared of days gone by, of his travels, and of his full, and wonderful life are ones that we’ll all cherish, and relish for generations to come. His love of nature, and adventure still lives in us all!
If you met Grandpa, you were greeted with a boyish blue-eyed smile, a hearty “how-do-you-do”, and if you got along for more than a minute he’d be happy to make you a beautiful copper rose too.... Oh, and if you gave him a biscuit he’d make you a dozen or more....
Rest in peace Grandpa. We love you, and can feel every day that love that you so readily, and selflessly demonstrated while you were with us!
Love,
Troy##imported-begin##Troy Wiley##imported-end##
