Earline was the love of my Dad's life, and he was her's. What a gift they were to each other, and to those of us that witnessed their kind, steady, love. Earline, thank you for keeping that love alive way past my Dad's life. You kept him present for me and Cali. I loved our visits. Our trips to Alex. Your cards and calls. We will miss you but find solace in knowing you are reunited with Dad again. I hope you two are dancing in the stars. Looking down with love. Bye for now. Much Love, Deb

We are so sorry to hear of Earline's unexpected death. She was one of just a few people that Bob went to school with in Park River, ND, through grade shool and high school. He has many good memories of her during those 12 years. She will be greatly missed.

Earline was a special lady who I had the pleasure and honor to work with and learn from at NEMetro 916.she was always thinking of others and went out of her way to give of herself. We were also neighbors and kept in touch after her retirement...I will miss our picnic lunches at central park and also an occasional movie and dinner. I am in Germany with my family...so sad I will miss her service..blessings to her family who she loved dearly...Earline you will be missed by so many who loved you...now you are with your dear Don...God Bless you.

Earline was the neighborhood Mom that every child wishes for. During the 60's and 70's I was fortunate enough to experience the kindness and caring ways of such a person who I remember and still need to call "Mrs. Trnka." My deepest sympathies and thoughts to my childhood friends John and Janet, their families and relatives. Peggy (Shearen) Lingwall, Clarion, PA

My dearest friend Earline,
You will be missed so very much! I will miss your special delivery fun packages on my door step, (you always knew what I liked and enjoyed, like your yummy bakery goodies), our monthly lunches, our many T'AI CHI CHIH classes together, and the many many long talks we have had about everything and anything. What ever will I do without you? You were always so thoughful of others, especially me.
You will always have a special place in my heart.
Love,
Cindy Mae
