I am very very sorry to hear of Earl's passing. I so enjoyed getting to know him as a fellow Board Member - we were often in sync on so many areas. I will remember fondly his great dry sense of humor and his wonderful laugh!!! I always respected and admired Earl and his thoughtful and considered views- he really cared and always wanted to make things better for everyone.
Such a great loss...
