Earnie performed my wedding ceremony almost 24 years ago. He was a wonderful man of God and a great witness to many. See you in heaven one day dear friend.

You always greeted everyone with a smile and a kind word. I didn't get to see you often, but just knowing you were there was comforting. You were a big part of my childhood and I feel as though I have lost a part of myself. May God's love embrace you now and comfort those of us that now have an empty place in our hearts.

A Wonderful Man Of God.
