He grew up in Foley and graduated from Foley High School with the class of 1948. Following graduation, he worked on road construction.

Earl enjoyed attending auctions, hunting, sports, reading and being with family and friends. He had a strong faith and was a lifelong member of St. Lawrence Catholic Church in Duelm where he was an usher and a life member of the Knights of Columbus St. Lawrence Council #12519. He also belonged to several farm organizations. He is survived by his sisters, Mary Blattner of Sauk Rapids, Virginia Jacobs of St. Cloud, Rita Janson of Sauk Rapids, Ione Brown of Sartell and Elizabeth (Floyd) Udermann of Mounds View; and many nieces and nephews. Earl was preceded in death by his parents; brothers-in-law, Loyal Jacobs, Bernard Janson, Harold Blattner and Raymond Brown; his little angel niece, Janet Jacobs; and nephews, Jeffrey Jacobs, Robert Jacobs and Joseph Blattner.
