Jim, I'm sorry we didn't make the visitation we had and appointment but we did make the service. I thought they did a good job. A lots of people were their to show their support.
Mr. Earl (Brother Earl) meant so much to me in my masonic travels when we went on interviews he ask me where is your coat and tie. That was small but it was big in my memory and taught me a lots about life.
We loved him and will miss him but we know he is with the Lord
Forrest, Mary Jane, Mrs.Garner, and Fred Garner We love you'll and will keep you in our prayers
