I graduated from high school with Earl. He and I didn't
know each other that well, but I thought of him as one
of the good guys. I am very sorry for your loss. May
you find solace in sweet memories.

Carolyn,
Jimmy and I want to express our sincere condolences to you and your family. It's hard to believe just a little over three weeks ago we were all sitting at the same table for the Christmas Dinner. I remember talking to him about the cookies you made for us and I was telling him how good they were. When he gave me the pan with the cookies, he told me to "guard" them carefully, or they will disappear!! I took his advice. We know you must feel a void in your heart..and we are so sorry this had to happen to such a nice couple. We will keep you and your family in our prayers.
Much Love,
The Singletarys

I'm very sad to hear of Earl's passing. I knew Earl when he worked at a photography/camera store in the Westbrook Center. I owned a beauty shop in the same center. He was a very nice man and will be missed.
