One of my fondest memories was watching her and other ladies play the Senior Girls basketball team back in the late 70's, boy could she put on a show. We shared many laughs and memories together. Earlene, you are going to be missed by so many. I'm sure they are all dancing in Heaven at the arrival of this sweet angel. Love you.

A wonderful woman will be dearly missed. Aunt Earlene was like a grandma to me as a kid. I loved going over to see what good food she had cooking and loved sitting on the porch swing with her and playing with my cousins. I never heard her speak ill of anyone. I remember thinking how sweet she was all the time. I will never forget her singing, it was beautiful. She managed to always have a smile on her face. Heaven has received a beautiful angel!
