He is survived by his wife, Edith Ann Newcomb Seagle; his children, Tracy (John), Doug (Sheila), and Kim (Vince); his grandchildren whom he adored, DJ (Amanda), Taylor (Matthew), Ireland, and Jayden; and four great-grandchildren.

So sorry, Ann and family. Prayers for God’s grace and comfort during this difficult time. My children and grandchildren loved seeing the cows across the road at the fence. Gone, my neighbor, but never forgotten.

I would like to give my condolences to Ann and the rest of the Family. I remember when he and Ann were courting in that Black 1956 Mercury. I suppose i have known Jearld as long or longer than anyone that will read this. We became friends as young teens and i could not say i have seen a time i could speak a harsh word against him, he was a good and honest man. And Jearled, i still think when you put a stick shift transmission in that Mercury you should have changed the differential gear ratios also … lol ,,, I will always remember you. H.P. Harding
