I can say I believe I speak for all of us at Stop In #41 when I say that we looked forward to seeing you every day. You always brought a smile. Even though I love the fact that you were a BIG Dallas fan like myself...I still think James River was better then L.B. :-) You are gunna be missed!

Even though I haven't seen you in years doesn't help in knowing that I have lost a friend. Save us a spot in heaven.

I only know Justin but I send my sincere condolences to the entire Earls family. I understand the pain of your loss, as I lost my father at the young age of 47 in 2005. Justin was a huge support to my brother after he passed away and I'm sure he will give the same support to Justin during this difficult time. Just PLEASE remember ALL of your precious memories with Tony and know as time passes it does get a little easier. He will always be with you in heart and mind.
