I first met Earl at Central Service Station years ago. I was complaining about a gas company not filling a tank for me because I was driving an enclosed SUV vehicle. Earl volunteered the use of his truck to get it filled and I did. I thought then, what a super nice guy this is (and still do). He was truly a "good old boy" whose generosity, laughter, smile, and quick wit I'll always remember. My thoughts and prayers are with you and your family at this time. RIP my friend.
