Art Brown left a message on October 28, 2016:
I first met Earl as a rookie on the Cleveland Police Department in 1985. He was a source of encouragement. He carried himself with a standard of excellence that he aspired to live up to. I thank God for His grace in granting me the privilege of knowing a good man, and an outstanding Detective. May you embrace those precious memories of the times shared, as they will assist you through your time of grief. May the presence of Christ and His comfort be your portion moment by moment.

Those we love can never be more than a thought apart, for as long as there is memory, they'll live on in the heart.

Death is a challenge. It tells us not to waste time... It tells us to tell each other right now that we love each other. May you find comfort in the arms of an angel.
Apostle Stephanie Greathouse left a message on September 24, 2016:
What we have learned about the end of life is when someone you love becomes a memory that memory becomes a treasure. So know that if love could have saved you, you would have lived forever. Finally, until we meet again, may God hold you in the palm of his hand and close to his heart!
Peace of mind is a call away. We’re here when you need us most.
