Rest in peace, Uncle Earl, and my deepest sympathies for Aunt Jan, Chris, John and your families.  I am praying for your peace and comfort in this difficult time.

I have such wonderful memories of growing up with Earl and having a tree fort, going bowling, and just hanging out. My deepest sympathies to all his friends and to the family.

My dad is my hero and is the very reason I had so much comfort and security in my life.  He always listened and always had the right answer.  He gave me so much strength through the tough times I have had over the last nine years.  He always gave me the confidence to keep going and to never stop fighting for my children.  He loves his grand kids so much.  They were the light in his life.  No matter what kind of day he was having, it always brightened his day to see them and spend time with them.  His grand kids gave him so much strength.  Besides his family, I could not think of anything he loved more than his country.  He served in the Army and  talked about how much he loved to be stationed in San Antonio, TX.  But his heart always belonged to Mayfield Heights.  That is where he raised my sister and me.  He was married to my mom for 30+ years.  I have so many good memories growing up here.  All from seeing how Mayfield has changed though the years, to playing little league baseball, to buying Christmas trees.  My love for the holidays comes from him.  Especially Christmas and the Fourth of July.  I remember the one year we were not able to get a Christmas Tree because I had no car.  So I walked to Highland Floral, bought a tree, and walked all the way back home.  It must have took several hours.  But I wanted to make my parents and sister so happy as my dad did for us.  He instilled the value of celebrating Jesus' birthday and the reason for the season.  He always instilled American values and the value of family.     My love for baseball lived through him.  It was a tradition to see the Indians on Father's Day.   I will miss that.  I never knew life could be this painful.  But he would not want me to cry.  So I will try to be strong for you.  Your forever in my heart!  Your with God, grandpa, grandma, Aunt Patti, Sam, squeaky, and Harley.  And that gives me comfort.  We will be together again.  I love you and miss you!

Fond memories of the trips to Linden Ave and Earl's eagerness to explore and share the area. May he be at a well deserved peace. May his family be comforted remembering the joys of his life.

We are so very sorry for the family's loss.  We will always remember Earl as a very loving husband, dad, and grandpa.  Our favorite memory is seeing him walk Chris down the aisle on her wedding day.  He was beaming with pride every step of the way, and I think he intentionally slowed his pace because he wanted to enjoy every minute of that walk with her.  We knew Earl to be a very kind and giving man - always ready to lend a hand. and a very proud veteran.  May he rest in peace now - no more pain or struggles.  Our thoughts and prayers are with all of the family.

Sending condolences and wishing comfort and peace for Uncle Earl's family and close friends.  He was surrounded by beautiful people that cared for him. 

I am so sorry for your loss. I wish that I could have known my Uncle Earl better. I know that he is in a better place and is looking down at my Aunt Jan and my cousins Chris and John with a big smile. I pray that peace and comfort come to you, and that you feel all of the love that he had for you.
