Obituaries: Margaret Louise Everett

Margaret Louise (Desmarais) Everett, 76, of Bristol, beloved wife of Donald J. Everett passed away peacefully from a short battle with cancer on Tuesday (April 26, 2016) in New Britain.  Born in Bristol on July 6, 1939 she was a daughter of the late Marguerite (Pilbin) Girgenti.  Besides her husband, Margaret is survived by her daughter: Brenda Everett of Plainville; her son Gary Everett: of Unionville; her six grandchildren: Amber Everett and her boyfriend Jose (Chelo) Torres of Bristol, Christopher (Chris) Everett and his wife Crystal (Damon) Everett of Bristol, Mark Everett of Bristol, Matthew Hogan of Plainville, Nicole Hogan of Plainville, Caitlyn Hogan of Plainville; their father, Noel Hogan of Plainville; six great-grandchildren: Kyleigh, Brianna, Joseph (Jo Jo), Brayden, Gianna, and  Rosalena; sisters: Clara Petit of Plainville, Louise Luminati and her husband Pete of Canaan;  a brother: Bill Babcock of Plainville; a brother-in-law: Carl Everett of California; a sister-in-law: Maryann Everett of Torrington; and several nieces and nephews.  Margaret was predeceased by a brother, Paul (Butch) Babcock, and a sister, Madeline Babcock.  Family was the most important thing in her life – especially her grandchildren and great grandchildren. She loved all the birthday parties, or just getting together, any excuse to be with family, spoiling everyone on Christmas vacations in New Hampshire, going to the casino, ceramics, sewing, baking, puzzles, shopping (only on Black Friday with family), sitting on her deck under the gazebo reading, couponing, or just watching the great-grandchildren play.  Funeral services will be held on Saturday (April 30, 2016) at 11 AM at Funk Funeral Home, 35 Bellevue Ave., Bristol.  Burial will follow in Peacedale Cemetery, Bristol.  Relatives and friends may call at Funk Funeral Home on Friday between 6 and 8 PM.  In lieu of flowers, donations may be made to Donald Everett, 6 Pleasant View Ave., Bristol, CT 06010, toward the purchase of a handicapped vehicle for Gary.
