Everett was a great man. I sat and talked with him this past Thursday about his high school days of racing. I am saddened by his passing – the world lost a good one. Peace to all his family and friends during this time of mourning.

I didn’t have the privilege of knowing Mr. Brewer however I do know his Son Nathan.
I’m sure the kindness and integrity I see in Nathan was a by product of the wonderful parents.l who raised him.
My prayers for the entire family!
In Christ,

We are at a loss for words at the news of his passing. Everett was always kind and generous with information on Corvettes any time I needed his help. He was without a doubt, one of the best in the Corvette community. He will truly be missed by all.
