Dear Aunt Miriam and Laurie,

You are in my thoughts and prayers. Please accept my deepest sympathy. Uncle Earl was a truly remarkable man and will be remembered fondly. I hope that you can find comfort in knowing that he is now with his brothers in heaven, and I know that they are watching over us each and every day.

Dear Eberhart family,

Mr. Eberhart was the first teacher I ever had. I attended a one-room school in Upper Nazareth township where he taught eight grades. The year was 1939 so he could not have been more than 22 years old. All I know is that he was probably the best teacher I ever had. My sisters and brothers feel the same way as I do. The strangest thing is that when our daughter graduated college she taught at the Lincoln School in Emmaus where Mr. Eberhart was principal. When she married in 1977 we were so happy to see him at her wedding in Nazareth. Please accept the symnpathy from all of the Sevi/Regi families.
