Fred Everett Jr.

Fred attended New Home Baptist Church in Magnolia, Mississippi during his childhood and adolescent years.

While attending Pike County Agricultural High School, Fred was very active in sports. He excelled in basketball and was dubbed “The Hawk”; a name that still rings around Pike County Mississippi to this day. Fred received a few MVP awards and numerous trophies in basketball, football and baseball during his high school years.

Fred moved to California in 1958 and later relocated to Las Vegas, Nevada. Fred has always had a flare of salesmanship, and his personality was warm and he always aimed to please. He started his career in Sales at Sears, and it was no surprise to know that he enjoyed his job and advanced rapidly. However, he did not stop there! He founded and operated Quality Coffee Company. The business started in his garage and quickly expanded to a new complex in Carson, California. Fred successfully operated the business for 10 years. After retiring, Fred continued working as a Realtor in Las Vegas, Nevada.
