Sorry to hear of Earl’s Death. Hope all of you the very best.
Earl was my Father first cousin. My Dad and Mom visit with him in Kent. I visit with Earl at the family Taylor picnic couple of years ago and had a very nice time.
Earl and I worked on the B2 Program together for several years. He was truly one of the, “nice guys”. My deepest sympathy to the family.
THIS IS A BIG LOSS. EARL AND I WORKED TOGETHER FOR MANY YEARS. WE HAD LUNCH TOGETHER ONCE OR TWICE A YEAR FOR THE LAST SEVERAL YEARS AND WE TALKED ABOUT FAMILY AND DAYS WHEN WE WORKED TOGETHER. I WILL MISS THOSE LUNCHES. CLARK HUNTER
Dear Joan & John: So sorry to hear about your father’s passing. I enjoyed visiting with him during our 60th class reunion. I knew Earl all my life and he helped me get through some of my classes in high school- he always was a nice person and I was glad to know him.
My thoughts and prayers are with all of Earl’s family. As a classmate and friend he will be long remembered. It was nice to see him at our class reunions over the yrs.
I was saddened to receive the email informing me of Earl’s passing. We grew up together at Genesee and graduated with the class of 1950. It was so great to see him at our 60th GHS class reunion this past summer. I phoned our friend Mary Currin Chadwick this morning to tell her about Earl, and we laughed when we remembered how we always sat in study hall together so Earl could help us with our geometry; we still swear that his tutoring was responsible for our passing the class! Earl was a good friend to so many people in and around Genesee and we want the family to know how much we loved him and how much we will cherish his memory.
