SO sorry to hear of Earl's passing. He was very much liked by all who knew him.
We remember those early "CB radio" days when the "Mike Keyers" would get together and have some fun and play a few cards. Memories!
And we're sure that his family's "Memories" will keep and hold him close till they too, can once again be close to, laugh with, and love him, in Heaven.
Sincerely,
Pistolero and Lucky Linda
