I first met Earl when I was 16 years old, I'm now 67, he made a big impression, he was a larger than life character. We had some great times at the Clive Green Health Centre and a remodel or two of the Cut Above Salons. There's a lot of stories and some wonderful moments we shared, you put me on the right path in my formative years, I still remember a lot of what you told me!!! Go and join Clive and Ido, they'll be happy to see you again, gone but never forgotten.
Dear Gael and Rochelle I was so sadden to hear of Earls passing. I'll miss Earls quirky sense of humour, his incredible sense of style and his generosity. Forever in my memory of the good times at Cut Above Academy. Love Bronwyn
Earl often loomed large in our family’s life for many years, sometimes sharing Christmas Day and causing a lot of excitement for his three young nephews with his eccentric outfits and cheeky comments. We will always hold dear those memories of him. Go well Earl. Yvonne and boys
Earl was one of a kind, to know him was to have shared with a life loving and life living man. Earl did not do things in short measure, life was to important to him so he just grasped it by the horns and did it 'his way' hence the success that Earl and Gael shared and had in common. We count ourselves as blessed to have known him. RIP Earl
Mr T Will always remember your great greeting 😃(SHAKE THE HAND THAT 1 DAY IS GUNNA SHAKE THE WORLD). With that big grin.🙂 A real pleasure knowing you. Rest in peace
We will always cherish many lovely memories of our beloved Uncle Earl, a kind, generous, loving family man, and hardworking, disciplined to achieve success in business. My dear Uncle Earl always took my phone call and took time to see me when I called in to visit him in his office at work. Uncle Earl made Christmas at Earl, Gael, and Shelley's a most special family time. We love you. Go well Uncle Earl.
