Condolences for Earl D. Whitson
To my father, you will be missed, your were loved by many. My condolences to the rest of the family.
His jokes were awful, but that ridiculously serious face waiting for us to laugh was priceless. He was a friend and a dad to those who needed him—whether we thought we did or not. Always the first to show up when we screwed up, telling us exactly how badly while helping us fix it. Sarcasm was his love language, and we always knew how much he cared. He will always be remembered and deeply missed.
