Funeral services were held on Wednesday, March 21, at the Immaculate Conception Catholic Church in Riceville. Rev. Ray E. Atwood officiated. Burial was in the Calvary Cemetery, Riceville. The Conway Funeral Home was in charge of the arrangements.

Everett was born on June 28, 1938, the son of Norbert and Theresa (Wettstein) Hughes. He was baptized and confirmed at the St. Mel’s Catholic Church in McIntire and graduated from the McIntire High School.

In 1959, he was united in marriage to JoAnn Francis at the St. Patrick’s Catholic Church in LeRoy, Minnesota and they set up farming in the McIntire area. Everett started raising purebred hogs and became a breeder of Poland China hogs. After many ups and downs in the hogs market, Everett went into trucking which is was what he did up to the present time.

He was a former member of the Poland China Association, former member of the St. Mel’s Catholic Church and present member of the Immaculate Conception Catholic Church.

Preceding him in death were his parents.

Those that survive him include his children and their spouses, Lori and Tom Hall of Hayfield, Minnesota, Debbie Hughes and Scott Losee of McIntire and Dan and Lydia Hughes of Fremont; eight grandchildren; one great-grandchild; and one sister, Elaine and Larry Freerksen of LeRoy, Minnesota.
