We encourage you to share your most beloved memories of Earl here, so that the family and other loved ones can always see it. Share your favorite stories or comment on those shared by others.
Earl and Deb were great neighbors for years. My family could always count on them for any help, and I NEVER had to worry about security or anyone bothering my wife or daughters with big Earl around:) Even though we didn't get to see each other over the last several years, We thought an awful lot of Earl and he will be missed by many of us. Our thoughts and prayers go out to Debbie, Dawn, Joey and all of Earls extended family. May god watch over you and protect you, as Earl always did.

I just can't believe he has passed. I remember the good times we used to have singing. I remember the first time he sang karaoke it was with me. Your Song by Elton John. He wanted to sing but not by his self the first time. I only wish we could have gotten together more often in the last few years but as it always does life happened and we were busy. But it was always fun when we did. Deb we will see you.

Earl Reed had a personality larger than life. He was full of love and cheer for everyone he knew. He always had a hug, a smile, and a word of encouragement for everyone he met. He never grew tired of lending a hand. He was an awesome most amazing friend. The kind that comes along once in a lifetime. He loved, and lived life to its fullest. If you knew Earl you knew a true friend. With heavy hearts we say....until we meet again friend! We love you Earl Reed! To Debbie and family. We pray that God will grant you his peace, calm, and healing during this time of immense sorrow. We love you all!
