My deepest condolences on your loss. As a Nantucket Boys Club youngster for many years, Earl taught me many things - especially sportsmanship, setting goals & respect for others. Earl has had a profound, positive impact on my life and, I'm sure, many others.
His passing is truly OUR loss.

Dear Ellie, I am so deeply sorry to hear of Earle's death. He was my good friend over the years and we shared many great conversations and outings as well as a love of boxing.

Dear Mrs. Girroir:
I want you to know how much I respected Earl. Every time he saw me play softball he always said a few kind words about my play even though I thought that I might have played poorly. He was always a gentleman and such a beautiful man. He shared an optimistic outlook and I will miss conversing with him. I am sorry for your loss.
