Everett Keith Headrick, 78, of Cumming passed away Wednesday, April 2, 2008.  Mr. Headrick was a devoted family man whose word was his bond, a patriot who lived by his principles, and a powerful influence in the lives of all who knew him. He proudly served his country during the Korean War as a member of the U.S. Air Force.

He retired from a career with Lockheed after 27 years of service. A member of the First United Methodist Church of Cumming, he sang in the choir and especially loved holiday music. He taught his children and grandchildren by example to be readers and lifetime learners. He also loved cheering for the Denver Broncos.

Many benefited from his active participation in the Lions Club, where his community service was honored with the Melvin Jones Fellow Award.

Mr. Headrick left a legacy of service to God, family, and country, and he will be sorely missed. He was preceded in death by his son, Philip Headrick.
Survivors include his wife of 52 years, Wanda Headrick; three daughters and sons-in-law, Robyn Jones and husband Brian of Dawsonville, Lisa Joseph and husband Tony of Mesa, Ariz., and Allison Demijohn and husband Tim of Huntsville, Ala; and five grandchildren, Valerie and Ryan Jones of Dawsonville, Shalandra and Peter Joseph of Mesa, and Promise Demijohn of Huntsville.
