Robert “Bobby” Eversole, 59, of New Castle, passed away unexpectedly on Friday, June 24, 2022, at IU Health Ball Memorial Hospital in Muncie following a very brief illness. Bobby’s legacy will live on through his selfless gift of organ donation. He was born on July 23, 1962, in Rushville, Indiana, a son of the late George William and Ruth Ann (Davis) Eversole. Bobby was a 1980 graduate of New Castle Chrysler High School and served in the US Navy from 1981 – 1986 as a Gas Turbine System Technician. During high school, Bobby worked at Arthur Treacher’s Fish and Chips on Broad Street. Following his service in the Navy, Bobby worked at Waterfront Cruisers in Cowan for a short while and then began his career with Grede Casting Co. in New Castle when it opened. He worked there as a Layout Inspector before retiring in 2017 following 26 years of employment. For the past five years, Bobby was a Quality Control Specialist for Sugar Creek Packing in Cambridge City. Bobby married the love of his life, Sherrie Swoveland, on May 24, 1996. He was an avid bowler and golfer, playing in many leagues. Bobby always enjoyed the annual Grede Golf Outing. Every Saturday was reserved for playing poker with his buddies. His love of Bugs Bunny cannot be overstated. He collected all things Bugs Bunny and still loved watching cartoons. Although a city boy, his father-in-law instilled in him a love of gardening. He was incredibly proud of his wife’s cooking and loved taking people meals saying he wanted everyone in the world to enjoy his wife’s cooking. For family gatherings, however, Bobby was grill master and loved to grill.
