Earl was a great friend and I will miss him. I have so many great memories that we shared. I learned many things in magic from him that I will use the rest of my life.

I worked and sat next to Earl for almost 10 years at Kramer Agency. He was my mentor. I learned so much from him. We shared many good times. Mr. Burger for lunch everyday. Boy, we talked about everything. I will always remember that trip to New Orleans where I got Earl to try alligator meat, what a hoot! I know that he was a good husband and father as he always talked about his family with such joy. I have always had the greatest respect for Earl, both personally and professionally. A true showman! I will miss him dearly, but will always remember his infectious laugh, oh that sneaky laugh.
 MY condolences to Betty and the family. I just now October 12th, heard about Earls passing and wished I could have attended his funeral. He was the best!

I worked with Earl for many years at Mr. Fables in Grand Haven. He was a great boss and lots of fun. My sympathies to you Betty, and your family. Judy

Earl and I shared a friendship and interest in magic that took us to his shop in his basement. Like many magician friends, I would call Earl, and asked if he had any time to open the shop, which often ended up as the excuse to get together and talk about magic. Earl always had time for me. We shared some terrific conversation between ourselves, and I'm going to miss it. I just wanted the Wilcox family to know that Earl's kindness to me will always be remembered. I am sure he is flourishing even now.

Earl was a very fine gentleman. I shared the stage with him at many magic conventions. He will be missed.

Dear Betty and family, We send our sympathies for the passing of Earl, truly a legend in the Magic World and, much more importantly, a decent human being and man devoted to his family. He was among the first Magicians I met, and it was his love of the literature of Magic which started my own ongoing desire to care for our most treasured history and art. Many worlds are less dazzling today. Paul and Peggy

I am greatly sadden by Earl's passing. Earl gave my first break with Kramer Entertainment and remained a friend from that time on. I will always remember his ball manipulations and the times sitting together at many a Magifest in Columbus. Earl may you enjoy your new life performing magic with the grace and ease of youth. Sincerely, Keith Kocher Fellow magician and friend

When I think of Earl, I remember his laughter, his kindness and advise. His professional role model and love of life and its work changed my life. I'm so proud to have known and worked for and with Earl.

I am so sorry to hear of the lose of your father and husband. I regret that I did not receive word of his passing in time to visit the family at the funeral home. God Bless your family.

Dear Betty and family - My sympathies and condolences go out to all of you regarding the passing of your husband and father. I KNOW that our Heavenly Father will give you the peace and comfort you need whenever you ask it. I love the Footsteps story about how God walks beside us and will carry us through the hardest times. My favorite phrase, which I received when my husband went to his heavenly home almost 2 years ago, is this - " If you will reach up just as far as you can, God will reach down all the rest of the way." May He be close to you in the coming weeks. Ardie Ondersma from Rosewood Church

I remember the first time I visited his store in his basement. And how he got me involved in the local Ring 211 in Grand Rapids. -My thoughts and prayers are with you-
