Earl was my roommate for three years here in Utah. He was also my friend. I have known him for the fourteen years I have resided here in Utah, and he has always been there, helping out and an ear through tough times. Earl was a good man. He was a good athlete, and loved the mountains, which is what drew us all here and how we all became friends. He will be missed.
