Earl was my Uncle Alfred's "next door neighbor to the east" at Arbor Heights for 3 years. Earl was always so pleasant and always had a bright smile. He will be missed by many.

The southside of Des Moines lost a great guy. I have not seen Earl in years, but remember quite clearly when I was in junior high and high school his smile was always special. Rest in Peace - Earl!

Earl will be so missed. My brother John Paul was his best friend and loved him. They would talk every night and laugh.
