Earle and Jinny were close, loving friends of our parents and for a time lived just down Oak Hill Rd from each other. Our prayers reach out to all the family and know that Earle is enjoying his eternal rest.

What an honor for me to serve on the Manito-Wish board with two members of the Combs Family. Saddened by the news and blessed by the memories

Earle was. without question or condition, a great human being. I knew him as a fellow Board member at Camp Manito-wish YMCA. He was unfailingly kind, generous and tolerant. In the din of many voices, his soft tones were always audible and sensible. To lightly paraphrase Swinburne, "Where the light of his life, Will shine, On the generations that live, Only Death dies." Surely the light of Earle's remarkable life will shine on all who knew him. Ginny and Chip, I am thinking of you. Jim

Mr Combs was always smiley and cheerful whenever we came upon him. He remember him as a renaissance man who had a deep knowledge and interest in varied topics, but his easy going, sunny disposition was what made him particularly engaging!

Our lasting memory of Earle is seeing him along Kemp Rd, perspiration streaming down his face, chainsaw in hand, clearing hazardous trees with his crew from Camp Manito-Wish. It was a privilege to know him and an honor to call him our friend. Our thoughts and prayers are with his family.
