    Aunt Joyce, my deepest sympathies are with you and your family at this time of grieving. One of my fondest memories of Uncle Earl when I visited was watching The Price Is Right with him! He always loved that Dian! I will truly miss him! Love you all, Julie.

    My prayers will be with Joyce and the family at this time. Earl was a special man to so many people. Not just family and nieghbors but those with whom he worked with distinction for many years. I am honored to call him, with great respect, my friend.
