Earline was sought after by every politician in the state, and was a great civil rights activist during the movement. We felt a great loss due to her illness, and now her passing is heart breaking. Prayers and condolence to her family, friends, and all the people she helped. She not only loved her family, she loved people. May she rest eternally in heavenly peace.

We will always love you Earl
