Earl enjoyed spending his winters in Florida and fishing in Lake Okeechobee. He loved gardening and harvesting the fruits of his labor, always sharing with family and friends. He also enjoyed riding his three wheel bike, helping the Rocky Ridge Volunteer Fire Dept. with butchering and apple butter making, playing bingo on Saturday night and most of all telling a good joke -- making all around him laugh.
In addition to his wife, he is survived by his daughter, Deborah Dorsey McCubbin and husband Charles of Thurmont; two grandsons, Christopher B. Dorsey and wife Kathryn of Westminster and Benjamin M. Dorsey and fiancee My Phan of Baltimore; a sister, Mary Grace Edwards of Westminster; two brothers, Ira Ambrose and wife Katherine of Gettysburg, Pa. and Wesley Ambrose and wife Masie of Littlestown, Pa; numerous nieces and nephews; brothers and sisters-in-law, Charles F. Jr. and Betty Eyler of Rocky Ridge, Carroll and Doris Schildt of Frederick, Richard and Gloria Eyler of Taneytown, Francis Eyler of Hanover, Pa., Richard and Josephine Dinterman of Keymar and Earl Lemmon of Silver Hill.
He was preceded in death by his son, Dennis Ambrose; a brother, John Paul Ambrose; his mother-in-law Oneida Eyler and sister-in-law Betty Lemmon.
