    This says he enlisted in the Army Air Corps as a private on 11/05/1942, for the duration of the war plus 6 months. He was from Kansas, born in 1916, had two years of college and was a "jeweler or watch or clock maker" in civilian life. He was married. Obviously this is not our Earl but who is he?

    Notes:

    Elaine grew up in Colorado, the eldest of three girls. At the roller rink where she worked, she met and married a young Army private who whisked her 1000 miles away from home to a completely new life.
    She raised four boys and a chihuahua named Tinkerbell in a tiny manufactured home that was always clean, currently decorated and a peaceful refuge. Once the family was settled, they began making the two-day drive to Colorado every other year. In off-years, Elaine's parents came to Texas.
    She spent much of her time at her dining room table chatting with visitors or on the phone and watching her soaps. The table was the focal point for family and friends and its chairs were seldom empty.
    Elaine couldn't drive a car and she swam like a rock but she was a great mom, grandmother and mother-in-law.

    Notes:

    Douglas was one of the funniest people I ever met, he had a knack for making folks laugh. He spent many years as an over-the-road truck driver and then switched to heavy equipment so he could settle. He was in the rodeo club in high school but wasn't really a cowboy type. He never married but had relationships that made him an honorary father. He was the first person I met when I moved to Hitchcock and I will always consider him one of my best friends.

    Notes:

    Being the youngest brother of three rowdy boys could not have been easy for Eddie but he was, in fact, quite personable and family-oriented. He was too young to hang out with Alan and I but was a best friend to David and Scott. We called him Skettie when he was young and then Big Ed and finally Big Head, a nickname that we still used at the time of his passing.
    A story from Elaine: When she went into labor with Eddie, she went to the old hospital in Texas City. That hospital had a clinic in front and the actual hospital was across the alley in the back. The nurse put her on a gurney and pushed her out the back door of the clinic and Eddie was born in the alley before they could get through the doors of the hospital.
    His name was supposted to have been Dean Walter but they decided they had enough DWTs so they made it Edward Dean.

    Obituary:
