 He was born on September 19, 1932 to Louis and Beulah Good.  He married Roberta Haugen on October 30, 1976.

Earl enjoyed teaching and did so for over forty years in the La Crosse area.  Earl was to many of his students their favorite teacher as well as well-liked, admired, and respected. He always had a joke for you, usually an Ole & Lena one, and never ceased to make you laugh. When he wasn’t teaching he loved spending time with his family.  He was a turkey and deer hunter, a loving husband, father, grandfather, and great-grandfather.  He was also an exceptional testimony of his faith and love for God.
