He deeply loved his family and friends. Earl was well known for his wit and happy-go-lucky, free spirit. He loved the Lord, fishing, hunting, entertaining, painting, gardening, the Jets and the Mets, vacations in Florida. He loved playing cards with his buddies, antiquing, and hanging with family as he puttered on the house in upstate NY.
