So sorry to read about the loss of Earl in the Tribune. We shared some good times with him and Dorothy and their family at their home in Hoffman Estates as well as ours when our children were growing up. It's ironic that our son, Dan Haman and
his wife Tammy and family are members at
St. Peter's. Earl will be missed by many and I will miss his Christmas card this year. God's blessings to Earl's family.
In sympathy ~ Marilyn Haman
