RIP my dear friend...8 years !! Wow...Lots of memories, laughs...."I miss my friend"
This memorial website was created by Diane & Bryan in memory of our dad, Earle St. Pere. We will remember him forever. He was truly one of a kind. His unique style, personality and sense of humor will be so greatly missed. His appreciation of music, art, collectibles and antiques was inspiring and truly exceptional. We learned so very much from him and lost him way too soon. I am confident he rests peacefully in the great beyond with a spectacular ocean view, enjoying sunsets and music forevermore. I am confident that those of us who loved him so very much, will unite again with him someday with giant hugs and laughter.
The interment will take place in early 2016 at Bohemian National Cemetery in Chicago. Earle's daughter (Diane) will have more details at a later date - you can reach me (Diane) at dianeb5321@gmail.com.

Earle will be missed by all who knew him. He was a totally independent man who loved his family and did extraordinary things.
Earle had his priorities in order..... Family First!
He accomplished this with deeds.....Not words.
I will forever miss his laugh... unique sense of humor...and friendship.
If G-d allows military shows in heaven.....Earle will get the best table.
REST IN PEACE...my dear friend.....

Time has a way of separating people but not friendships. I have not seen Earle in many years, however I spoke with him via telephone a while back. He was his old self...quick to joke. We had a great time at Luther High South. I remember each lunch time when we tried to open "Suzzy Q's" without getting the filling all over our hands...I don't think anyone was able to do that. I will miss "Duke" Rest in Peace Buddy!

THE "Duke" of Earle. Some friends you never forget you are one. High School and those class reunions getting together seem so far away today, but the memories are clear, FOND and timeless. No more passes to catch. No races to run. You will be missed. Via con Dios my friend.

My brother and I have started this site so that friends from near and far can share memories and photos of our dad, Earle St. Pere, as we mourn together. Although we did not meet many of you in person we know for sure, that your lives were deeply touched by knowing our dad. We were so very shocked and saddened by his sudden and unexpected passing due to a cardiac event. He was way too young and vital and he was taken from us far too soon.

You will have to forgive me for saying "PLEASE STAY TUNED" but I am still in shock from all this. After all "DUKE" was many many things to me in my life. So please stay tuned because I have so much more to tell you.

True appreciation of art and beauty

Having spent time over the years and again recently in my dad's home among his collection of art, music and collectibles, I have a renewed appreciation for his artist's heart and mind. He saw beauty in many things which was a rare gift.
