What a great guy. Some of my fondest memories are of spending a great deal of time with the Earley family when I was young. Mr. Earley was kind enough to invite me on most, if not all of their camping trips. He would haul the family and I to all the area lakes. This meant there would be some great eating when he broke-out the grill. He was an excellent cook. My deepest condolences to the entire Earley family, especially Richard.
