The family of LCDR Donald E. Eversoll, USN (Ret) has invited the Patriot Guard Riders to be present to honor him for his service to our country. It would be our honor to do so.

LCDR Donald E. Eversoll joined the United States Navy January 22, 1980 and served until his retirement, January 22, 2010. During his thirty years of service, Donald served aboard many ships including the USS Midway while it was in Japan. He also served with VS-41, HSL-47 both out of NAS North Island, and with the Seabees in Port Hueneume. Donald’s final tour was with Explosive Ordnance Disposal Group ONE who he was deployed with in Iraq, participating in the Global War On Terror.

LCDR Eversoll’s awards include the Meritorious Service Medal (2 Awards), the Navy & Marine Corps Commendation Medal (5 awards), the Navy & Marine Cops Achievement Medal (7 awards) along with many campaign & service related medals & ribbons.

Donald loved riding his Harley, beach camping, surfing, fishing, and was passionate about sports. He loved to barbeque and spend quality time with his family. Donald had an enormous heart and loved making people laugh.

Donald leaves behind his spouse and two sons.
