Earline will be greatly missed by me. She was a loving and dear friend. She made me feel that I was part of her family. I loved her dearly. I will be grieving a long time. We talked not only bridge, which she was excellent at, but hair, makeup, clothes, home remedies, etc. she was a beautiful soul and loved Wilburn dearly.
