Myrtis Powers Wadsworth wrote a sympathy message

“Joe Earl we went to Skene School and graduated from there. As I recall, you were one of the valedictorians. Always ready to step up when others would not. We grew up right down the road from each other and I believe if memory serves me, we were Mr. and Miss Junior high in the eigth grade. Always one of my favorite people, you will certainly be missed. RIP my friend.”
