Surprised and deeply saddened to hear about Earl. He was a gentle man of intelligence, humour, deep feelings and a strong sense of justice [right and wrong]. I will miss the visits and the conversations. Earl … and family will remain in my thoughts and in my prayers.

To the Stephen Family: Our sincere sympathy on the loss of a dear brother Earl. Our thoughts are with you at this very sad time.
Margaret Prout
Sincere sympathy is extended to you and your family in the loss of Earl. Over the years, Glenn and Earl had many chats, many ‘flips’,
sometimes for a quarter, sometimes a wheel, or sometimes for the
total bike deal, but mostly for a laugh or two. Many times it was a deal between Bob Heywood, Glenn and Earl. These memories I do recall.
Cherish your memories. May Earl rest in peace.
Murray and Brenda Stephen
