Robert L. Everett passed away in the early morning hours on Monday, June 2, 2025, at the age of 90. He was predeceased by his parents, Harlem S. Everett and Katherine M. Damico, as well as two brothers, Donald and Richard Everett, both of California.
Bob dedicated much of his life to bodybuilding, starting his journey at Howard Cohen’s Weightlifting Gym in Savannah. He earned second place in the Mr. America over 40 competition, behind Arnold Schwarzenegger, who took first place. In 1976, he secured first place in both the Mr. Region and Mr. Adonis competitions. By 1980, he achieved first place in the Mr. Savannah competition and also won first place in the Southeast Bodybuilding Championship.
He is survived by his sister, Patricia E. Cassidy, and his nephew, Robert Cassidy, Jr.
A private ceremony will be held at a later date. The family wishes to express their gratitude to everyone at Spanish Oaks Memory Care, especially to Bob's dear friend Beverly Polite, who provided exceptional care for him.

I met Bobby when I was in the Marine Corps stationed near Savannah. I too was into bodybuilding as it was our draw to a friendship for many years since that year 1970. We caught many workouts together and great times at a Pub in Savannah called Trader Louie's, Steve Thompson Bar. Bobby and I traveled down to Lake Helen, Florida to the Nautilus facility to see what all the hip was about the invention of Author Jones's creation. We were both awe stricken by Jones's idea of brief and high intensity training. Jones changed the entire fitness industry to a level never imagined. Later on when I mustered out of the Marine Corps stationed I returned to my hometown Middletown ,Ohio, Bobby visited me and my little family having a great time, Bobby was always a kid at heart and cracked up with my 3 . Bobby and his Mom kept a Parrot that had quite a vocabulary which was entertaining and halarous. Bobby got his Mother's good heart she was kindness person you could ever meet. Bobby I'm sorry just finding that you've passed ,Brother we will meet again soon RIP
