Before I retired from the USAF and moved back to BBH, one of the things we enjoyed the most was running over to Earls studio. Yes, we did but a fair amount of his beautiful artworks, but we enjoyed just talking to he and his wife. Looking at his ship models was worth many a trip in itself, and viewing the many water colors he did whilst on his 3 year European trip is something we cwill never forget. rest in peace, Earle.

To the family of Earle Barlow, I am sorry for your loss. May you find comfort in knowing that God is "near to those that are broken at heart; and those who are crushed in spirit he saves." (Psalm 34;18) With sympathy,

The world has lost another wonderful and talented person. I am so grateful to have had Earle as my Uncle and have had him in my life. I will always remember as a child looking forward to seeing Earle and Helen on Saturday nights in their beautiful square dancing clothes. They looked like a prince and a princess to me. I will always remember him everytime I look at his incredible paintings on the wall. So incredibly talented! I just wish I had purchased more.

I am saddened to see the notice of Earl's death. I only met Earl several times through my mother's friendship with Earl. Once we visited Earl at his home in East Boothbay. I will always remember the model ship he was working on and I relate Earl's skill in building such a model to anyone that will listen. It was amazing. But the greatest reminder of Earl are the prints that hang in my living room. One of East Boothbay and one of Boothbay Harbor, both in the early 1900's I only wish that I had bought more. His skill at painting these pictures brought to life a man who was truly a talented person.Earl will be missed by a community that he brought much to.

Earle was my mentor teacher at Brunswick HS. He remains an inspiration to me. He was a wonderful person and an unforgettable part of my life although I saw him very infrequently. My best wishes go to his family

WE enjoyed looking at his paintings many times. My family owns a cottage at Ocean Point next to the Wilson Chapel. Also we like to square dance. We started dancing after a free demo night one Sat when we were at the cottage. The club who put on the demo was the Sage Swingers from Brunswick and we met members a few times at the New England Conventions. We are sorry to hear of Mr. Barlow's passing.

Mr Barlow was my art teacher at Brunswick High School. He gave me the courage to express myself thru art, even tho I wasn't very good at it! He is a teacher I will never forget. May I express my condolences to the family, he sure was a special person to me and I know he certainly was to you.

When I think back about happy memories I always think of the great trips my family had to East Boothbay to see Grampa and Grammie Barlow! We always had so much fun with them and also with Uncle Earle, Aunt Helen, Mike, Cathy and Chris. I loved to go to their house and see the paintings Uncle Earle was working on and to see his models. I am so lucky to have several of his paintings which I look at every day and they always remind me of him. He was the best!!

Condolences to us all for losing this member of our family. When I was growing up, I loved going to my cousin Cathy's house to be with her but also to spend time with my Aunt Helen and Uncle Earle. I was fascinated with the big boat that was taking shape in the back yard and with his intricate and detailed models. How great to have an uncle like him.
