Alex Raymond Earl

Alex Raymond Earl, beloved husband,father, brother, grandpa, pepaw, and friend. His heart beat with love for God and his family. He loved and cared deeply

for his friends and ministering to others. Alex used his talents as a drummer to bring God's love to countless men, women, and children as he used his talent as a drummer to serve God. His outreach ministry took him to the streets, missions, and shelters where he and his band, Trinity Boulevard, shared God's love with others. His life, his joy, his heart touched the hearts of shared God's love with others. His life, his joy, his heart touched the hearts of so many people. His outreach brought him to minister to the homeless at Union Gospel Mission in both Dallas and Fort Worth. He and Trinity Boulevard reached countless hearts over the last thirty years. And even now, Trinity Blvd. continues to minister through music to the homeless. Alex is a Navy and Vietnam Veteran. He loved being on his ship, the USS Hancock. He spoke often of the beauty of the stars in the night sky when he was out in the deepest, darkest ocean and the ship ran dark. We loved this man who considered himself a simple man. He cared not for the trappings of the world, but for God first, his family, and his friends. He will be so very greatly missed. This man, Alex Raymond Earl, is greatly loved, and he will forever be in our heart. There is no greater love than to lay down one's life for one's friends.
