    My first memory of my Uncle Earle was when he showed me his winter garden in Bethlehem. He also rode his bike to our house in Quakertown when I was a teenager. He visited us when we lived in Ponte Vedra Beach, FL. We had many phone conversations in the past years, where I learned so much about his life & his adventuresome spirit! Every year he would send me a gift of his amazing wood work. He was amazingly skilled in his intricacy & beautifully stunning products! He always made me feel special, & he was very appreciative of my phone calls & prayers for him, especially during his hospital stays. He will always have a special place in my heart! Love him & miss him terribly. Pat Moll
