Everett Ivan Guth, the son of Frank and Clara (Bier) Guth, was born Sept. 22, 1920, on his parents' farm at Meservey. He was raised and educated in Meservey and graduated from Meservey High School with the Class of 1938.

Everett was united in marriage to Lucille Jane Hatch on May 24, 1944, at the Methodist Church in Nemaha, Iowa. Following their marriage, they lived on a farm near Meservey until 1946. In 1946 they moved to a farm north of Klemme. Everett and Lucille owned and operated the farm for the next 33 years until 1979. After retiring from active farming in 1979, they moved into their present home in Klemme. Though he had retired from the farm many years ago, he continued to be keenly interested in the happenings of his son's farming operation, assisting at times and always keeping up with what was going on. Even as recent as a few days before his passing, he was inquiring about an upcoming construction project that was in the works.

In addition to his love of family and farming and working the land, Everett was very dedicated to the community of Klemme and surrounding area. He had been a long time member of the Klemme United Methodist Church, serving as church treasurer for a number of years. Everett had also been active in the Iowa Farm Bureau and the Cattle Producers association during his years of active farming. Everett was elected and served as mayor of Klemme in 1988, serving a total of two years. He had been on the North Iowa State Bank Board of Directors for a number of years and had served as president of Klemme Co-op Grain. Everett was an assistant troop leader for the Boy Scouts and served on the Klemme School Board.

Everett enjoyed precious times spent with his family, and his grandchildren will cherish the memory of Grandpa taking them fora ride on a tractor or in the combine. He enjoyed playing golf, square dancing, camping, having coffee with the guys at the elevator and fellowship of senior meals at the 4 Point Center in Klemme. Everett and Lucille spent many winters in Mission, Texas, where he enjoyed shuffleboard, golf and the company of good friends.

Everett's legacy will be fondly cherished by his surviving family, including his wife and life partner of more than 62 years, Lucille Guth, of Klemme; three children, Nancy Cartier and her husband, David, of Vienna, Va., Dennis Guth and his wife, Margaret, of Klemme, and Peggy Talarico and her husband, Frank, of Omaha, Neb., nine grandchildren, Scott Cartier, Mountain View, Calif.; Kristina Cartier, Herndon, Va., Eric Guth, Forest City, Natalie, Anna, Peter and Lilly Guth, Klemme, Ia., Angela and Amy Talarico, Omaha, Neb., two stepgrandsons, Jon Talarico, Molalla, Ore., and Steven Talarico, Canby, Ore.; two great-grandsons, Gavin and Gareth Cartier, Mountain View, Calif., a sister, Marvyl Frink, New Hampton; and sisters-in-law, Amelia Guth, Meservey, and Evelyn Rockufeler, Storm Lake.

He was preceded in death by his parents; an infant sister, Frances; his brother, Eugene Guth; and brothers-in-law, Everett Frink, Ardell Rooks and Frank Rockufeler.
