I did not know Mr. Mundell but my father did. They were classmates and they played football together at Ambler High School (Ambler, PA) in the 1940s. Earl was a football legend here and his name is still spoken, frequently, when this team is remembered. I believe Earl was a Halfback( and back up- quarterback to Dom Camasso). My father, Joseph Notoris Sr., who passed away in 1991, was Center. RIP Mr. Mundell. You are still remembered fondly in Ambler, PA.

Mr. Mundell was an amazing educator. He taught us to respect ourselves and others by the example he set. His intellect, kindness, generosity of spirit, leadership, and devotion to others will be greatly missed. Ive been fortunate to have experienced academic excellence and that is in part due to my elementary school principal, Earl Mundell. His belief in me helped to instill a belief that I could reach my goals. I know he did this for many students. He set us on the right road. Im so glad I had an opportunity to thank him. Rest In Peace.

His intellect, leadership, and devotion to others will be greatly missed. I've been fortunate to have achieved academic success and a great deal of that can be traced to my elementary school principal, Earl Mundell Sr. May he Rest In Peace. Sherry Sherrell

It was men like him and the late Mr. Jewel T. Bates, and a Mr. Ford who jumped start my career in education. Mr. Mundell was an elder to me in the church that gathers at Zion Baptist. I am richly blessed because of his mentoring and our life as Paul and Timothy, although I was hard head, he never gave up on me.

To The Mundell Family,

I'm so sorry to hear about Deacon/Principle Mundell's passing. Deacon Mundell was my principle at Jefferson Middle School. Truly, truly a warm and compassionate gentleman. I remember when he drove me to the hospital to meet my mother after I had an accident at school. What a wonderful and comforting gentleman. I send my love to the Mundell Family.
