Elizabeth Anne “Bunny” Everett
Elizabeth Anne “Bunny” Everett passed away unexpectedly on July 24, 2018, in Carmel, IN. She leaves behind beloved children, Nicholas James Rossiter and Andie Elizabeth Rossiter and their loyal and loving father Jim Rossiter. She was a graduate of Haslett High School class of 1985 and Michigan State University. Bunny was a former trainer, shift manager and purveyor for Mortons of Chicago in Orange County CA. But her favorite job was being able to stay home to raise her kids and care for her family. She was an exceptional mother.
She was preceded in death by her father, David Robert Everett, stepfather Scott Connine, grandparents Arnold and Alberta Everett, and grandmother Charlotte Bridenbaugh.
Also surviving are her mother, Anne Everett-Connine, stepmother Jan Wilson (Jim Larson), brother Rob (Laura) Everett and their 3 sons, sister Elainne (Mike) Rexford and their 2 sons, stepbrother Bill (Amie) and their son and daughter, Jim’s mother, Maggie (Jim) Peterman, and Jim’s sister, Patty Rossiter.
A memorial service will be held at 2:00 p.m. on Saturday, August 4, 2018, at Haslett Community Church in Haslett, with visitation one hour prior to the service at 1:00 p.m.
In lieu of flowers, donations can be made to Capital Area Humane Society or Haslett Community Church. Online condolences may be left for her family at www.EstesLeadley.com

After watching my niece and nephews going through losing their sister last year, I know there are no words that can heal you at this time. Know that you are in our thoughts and prayers during this very difficult time.

July 29, 2018 at 12:38 amElainne, Annie, and Janet, my heart is breaking for all of you. I didn’t know Bunny well, I knew her Elainne’s big sister. She had a kind heart, and didn’t pick on us “little kids” like other big sisters did. My condolences to the whole family. Much love!

July 29, 2018 at 6:13 pmI am SO sad to hear this news. I am deeply saddened as Bunny Everett and I shared many years together. We were explorers, and had it not been for her, my life may have turned out much differently. I am holding space knowing she is feeling ALL of our LOVE for her. She touched so many. I can hear her infectious laugh as I type. Peace & Blessings to her children and the entire family.

July 30, 2018 at 1:24 pmThinking about all of our Haslett cousins. I know we didn’t see each other often after we grew up but I have fond memories of when we were younger with Bunny and Robbie and even baby Elaine. So glad we got to see each other at Aunt Charlottes memorial.
Thinking of all of you and wishing you peace.
Cousin Anne

August 2, 2018 at 2:52 pmMy heart aches from the news of Bunny’s passing. I worked with her for many years at Morton’s in Costa Mesa and she was always such a fun, gracious a beautiful woman and cherished friend. Her smile was so welcoming.
My deepest sympathies to Nick and Andie. She was always so proud of you both and glowed whenever you were near, or she spoke of you!
I have the entire Rossiter and Everett family in my prayers.
R.I.P. sweet Bunny. You will be missed and always in my heart.

August 4, 2018 at 10:04 pmI was clicking on FB for people for I haven’t heard from this year and I saw this heartbreaker . So very sorry to read about this one. I met her in ’93 when we were recovering from torn ACL’s and I thought she was such a great person. So sad for her kids Nick and Andie. Also sad for her mom Anne who I met back then, and her siblings. Peace to all of you.
Rest in Peace Elizabeth.

PS My mom, dad, and I now live in Pennsylvania-my parents grew up in PA and we decided to move and have been here since August 2010. I am a toddler teacher at a nearby center, and really like it.
