IN LOVING MEMORY OF
Earl Franklin
Price, Jr.
February 13, 1972 – April 30, 2017
Earl Franklin Price, Jr., son of Eula Dennis Price and Earl Franklin Price, Sr., was born in Albany, Georgia on February 13, 1972.
He attended the public schools of Dougherty County, including Westover High School and graduated in the class of 1990. While at Westover, he was a member of the Patriot's wrestling team.
During the early years of his life, he accepted Christ as his Lord and Savior and united with the Greater Second Mount Olive Baptist Church under the leadership of the late Reverend C. W. Heath. There, he served as vice president of the Youth Department.
Following in his grandfather and father's footsteps, Earl began to sharpen his barbering talents and skills which spilled over into his lifelong career as a self-employed barber. As a young entrepreneur, he owned and operated The Chop Shop, R & P Barbershop, and Price & Sons Car Wash. Earl took great pride in his work and his expertise in the barbering industry, creative abilities, and business ethics yielded him the reputation of being "top notch" in his field. In addition to his professional skills and abilities, he was a talented vocalist with a rich and melodious voice.
Earl was hardworking, cheerful, generous, and kind and made many lasting friendships throughout his life. He will deeply be missed by all who knew and loved him.
On Sunday, April 30, 2017, Earl departed this earthly life in Summerset, Kentucky surrounded by his siblings, children, and friends.
Cherished memories will forever remain in the hearts of his parents, Earl and Eula Price; his children, Travious Price, Jazsmyne White, Staff Sergeant JaNiesha White, Keiarra Jackson, Elantria Price, Earlandous Price, Giovanni Price, Justin Price, Amiyah Price, and Leonni Danford; three grandchildren, Nyla, Jammie and Ny'Ava; siblings, Tonja Price, Michael (Shirley) Evans, Lynette (Willie) Traylor, Alvin Bryant, Kanava Carter, Yolanda Knighton, Cheryl Rebels, Twyla Perry, and Edrik Price; aunts and uncles; and a host of nieces, nephews, cousins and friends.
I'm on my way, flying high
I have sifted through the memories and relieved the burdens of this life
I've taken up my crown and I'm carrying my cross
I'm on my way, heaven bound
Leaving you physically but look around there's plenty of me...on….will be my legacy
I bet you didn't even know…
I've heard the words you've all uttered…
"always and forever"…"I love you"…"It's too soon"...but it's the Lords will,
That I be on my way with the warmth resurrected in my spirit.
I'm Home!
To: my big momma, pops, sisters, brothers, my 10 pack, cousins, family and true friends
There is no greater love than this.
I'll be here as always…..Love EP
