Earl Joseph Groft, Sr., was a son of John M. and Margaret Storm Groft.

He is survived by his wife the former Minerva Strausbaugh who he married on May 22, 1923 and their children included Earl J., Jr., Richard J. , Frederick J., Burnell K. and Dorothy A. Groft; brothers Francis and Preston Groft and sister hazel Staub and Marine Klunk.

Earl was preparing to broadcast his melody program over station WF-MD, Frederick when he had a heart attack.

Note - Earl was not reported in the 1930, 1940 and 1950 Census with his family, nor could I find a census for just him. He is recorded on his WW II Draft Record as living in Baltimore and his brother was his next of kin.
