Sidney and Jed - so sorry to hear about the passing of Earl. Will always cherish the time we were able to share with him on our visit a few years ago. It was so great to hear his stories of the areas that I remember as a child and it was great to introduce him to my children. With love at this time and always - Debbie and family

Sidney sweet girl, my heart is so heavy this day, for you and your son and Earls whole family! I know all to well the sadness and pain you are feeling. I wish my prays and words of my love for you and your family could take away the grief and any other bad feelings but nothing will take these feelings away! You will need to go through the process of grief and keep your faith in God, this will carry you throughout the rest of your life! You will always love and miss Earl! This is normal and the pain does get better with time but it is just because you learn to except what you cant change, or at least that is how it is for me Sidney! Good Luck, Sweet Girl! Peggy Wynn Your Friend Always!!!!!
