Funeral services will be conducted Sunday, August 1, 2021, at 2:00 p.m. at Porterfield United Methodist Church. The Rev. Josh Duckworth will officiate. Interment will follow at Sunnyside Cemetery, Cordele, GA.

Doug graduated from Sylvester High School and attended Georgia Technical Institute and Georgia Southern University. Doug was founder and president of Southern Appraisal Company where he appraised commercial real estate for over thirty years. He spent most of his adult life in public service. He first served on the Albany Planning and Zoning Commission and was then elected to the Albany City Commission, where he served two terms as Mayor Pro Tem.

In 1996, he was elected to the Georgia House of Representatives from Albany and served three terms before being elected to the Public Service Commission in 2002.

From his time serving the City of Albany, to refereeing football games, to serving in the legislature and then almost two decades on the Georgia Public Service Commission, Doug was a true public servant and friend to many.

Doug enjoyed many varied hobbies. He loved football officiating, photography, woodworking, building and flying model airplanes, model trains, greenhouse plants, especially golfing and many other interests.

He was preceded in death by parents Felton and Virginia Everett.

He is survived by his loving wife of 61 years, Janice Perry Johnson Everett; children, Perry Mitchell Everett of Atlanta, GA, a daughter Denice Everett Delk and her husband Boyd Fulton Delk of Doerun, GA, and a son, Michael Cash Everett and his wife Cristen Pennington Everett of Albany. Mr. Everett is survived by five grandchildren, five great-grandchildren, two sisters, Ann Livingston of Cumming and Jean Brooks of Sylvester and a number of nieces and nephews.

The family will receive friends Sunday, August 1, 2021 from 1:00 p.m. until the funeral hour in the Parlor at Porterfield Memorial United Methodist Church.
