My father, William Dawson, was Aunt Betty Ann’s brother. Uncle Earl and Aunt Betty Ann would visit our family (my mother Patricia and my brothers Bill and David) yearly. Mostly in Pompano Beach, F, and Aunt Betty Ann and Uncle Earl always filled the room with a lot of laughter and joy. The beautiful relationship Uncle Earl and Aunt Betty Ann had together was a thing of inspiration, and I try to instill their union with my wife’s and I.
I will miss your wit, your humor, and your honesty Uncle Earl.
All my love,
Bob
