To the Edward's: It was with deep sadness when I learned of the passing of Robert Earl. We were neighbors and friends for many years, growing up together. May God keep each of you during this very difficult time. May his grace and comforter be with you. God Bless: Nina Thomas White.

Robert was my uncle by marriage, but in my heart and in his, he showed me the love of a father. This is so surreal and I keep wishing someone could pinch me and say that this is all just a very bad dream. Uncle Rod was one of a kind.

To the family, My prayers are with you in your moments of sorrow.
