Earl we will miss your smiling face and greeting as we ran by your house frequently but we will especially miss watching you out in your beautiful garden. Your neighbors Dave, Dolores and Saxon

It was an honor to be a friend of Earl and to know and respect his memorable contribution to our country as a Fighter Pilot. After his Last Flight may he enjoy this next assignment with the same enthusiasm as all of his former endeavours.

Earl was a long and loved friend of my late husband and I. A hero and a gentleman, quite rare these days. He will be missed.
Love and condolences to his beloved wife Jane, a very dear friend.

Earl was my friend; my mentor, my co-worker and world class gentleman. I will always remember our arrival at XIEN CHINA , when we taxied by the hanger that was his old WW2 HQ for the Flying Tigers and our Chinese hosts found out he had served there.

We didn't know Earl personally. We do, however, know Mark. From the first time we met Mark, he always spoke of Earl in the highest regards. The love and respect he had for his dad was unconditional and heart felt. May Earl's soul rest, now, and may the family find comfort in the Lord.

Earl was a dear friend and I shall miss him deeply. I will always remember our days at North American Aviation and I know Jane will remember starting meals when I buzzed Doris for my dinner. Those and the many other experiences we had together will always be a part of me. Earl has joined the Heavenly Squadron and I'm sure he has been received by our Holy Commander. God bless you all. Love - Ralph
