Earl was truly a family man. He loved spending time and making memories with his family. Having numerous large family gatherings were a passion of his. He was a simple but giving man and it was once said, "If Earl liked you...he loved you."

Earl will be missed forever and his presence was an absolute gift and his absence will forever be felt, but filled with fun loving memories.
