Earl is my good friend, my driving instructor, and my Master Yoda as I continue to instruct those things he passed on to me. A true legend in every sense of the word. You will be missed.
Friend
First meet Earl when he was a Range Master at the VANG and then again when he came to work for CPD as a Firearms Instructor. Always willing to help you out, with great advice and a sense of humor. RIP Earl, “Semper Fi” Brother
Warmest of thoughts
You have our deepest sympathy on the passing of a wonderful person who served country and community. Earl was a member of our Marine Corps League and we exchanged recent memories at yesterday’s meeting from those that knew him best. He had a strong patriotism and was an inspiration to many. Our Detachment Chaplain rang a bell in Earl’s honor which will continue at every monthly meeting for one year. RIP Earl!

RIP my friend. We met at VaANG and stayed lifelong friends. We were still in contact via email to the end. He was a mentor and a friend.

Richmond Police Cadet
I first met Earl when I was a police cadet with Richmond P.D. in 1970. I left Richmond P.D. in 1975 but reconnected with him later with Chesterfield P.D. when he became a firearm instructor. Earl was a great officer and a great man and I feel privileged to not only work with him but to know him as well. RIP Earl
