Earl will be sadly missed by many nieces, nephews, extended family, and friends. Earl retired from Falconbridge after 30 years of mining, which he took on various health and safety roles. In his earlier years, he enjoyed playing sports such as baseball and broomball. In later years he enjoyed watching his grandson Jordan play hockey. An avid outdoorsman, who spent his time fishing, hunting, and relaxing at his camp on Onaping Lake. Passionate about carpentry, his craftsmanship is his family’s pride. Earl and Karen spent the last seven winters in Florida enjoying the sunshine, making new friends and memories. He was a social man who appreciated a great conversation and was always interested in learning. Earl enjoyed life and all it’s offerings. He was a well-respected friend, co-worker, and acquaintance.
