I am just now learning of Earl's death , and extend my condolences  to Marge and the family. I attended Eden Central School with Earl, and we rode the schoolbus together. We hunted rabbits and swam in the pond with another departed friend, Eddie Guggemos. Earl was a credit to his family, and a fine gentleman.

 I  wish to extend my sympathy to you Marjorie and your family . Very sorry to hear of Earl,s passing,. Grant passed away last nov. 12 2012.  . God  be with you all at this time ,

We are so sorry to learn that Sonny has passed away and wish to convey condolences to Marge and family. Sonny was so helpful in gathering  family info. and putting it all together. We will visit his remains along with the rest of our family at Elmdale cemetery in St. Thomas .

When Earl was promoted to Corporate Vice President of Human Resources, we in the GPSD H.R. Department presented him with a cake decorated with our message:  "Congratulations on your quantum leap!"  Now that Earl has been promoted again, and has returned to be with Heavenly Father, we repeat, "Congratulations on your quantum leap!"

What a great Father, Father-in-law, Husband and Christian. You will be missed until we are together agin.

Marge and close family I worked with Earl at  Garrett Airesearch in Torrance,Calif and Airesearch Tucson Divison  He was a great Guy to work with. He will be sorely missed.  After I left Airesearch we were still Friends. Saw each other at Casas Baptist Church  every Sunday  in the courtyard or in service. Rest in Peace Earl. Marge and Family your in our thoughts and prayers during this time.

Suppose they play Pigsnuckles in Heaven?? If not, Earl will teach them how.... God Bless.... Jim and Sandy
