| Following is from an article by Sean E. Brotherson, grandson of President Earl. The article appeared in Meridian Magazine and is entitled "Grandpas and Family History".
On my mother’s side, I was blessed with a caring and stalwart grandfather, Joseph Donal Earl. He grew up in the little Mormon pioneer town of Bunkerville, Nevada, the nineteenth child in a family of nineteen children. To him, it was an honor and an obligation to bear the Earl family name, and he purposefully passed this sense of responsibility on to his own children and grandchildren. He graduated from George Washington University in Washington, D.C. as a young man, then chose to serve a mission and went to Argentina. He loved the Latin peoples and worked to maintain his Spanish skills all his life. In later years he worked with the Bureau of Reclamation on the massive Hoover Dam project, then settled in Phoenix, Arizona and served as president of the Chile Mission (1969-1972) and as a stake patriarch for Spanish-speaking visitors to the Mesa Arizona Temple. He passed away just before Christmas in 1985. |
