Maybe you’ve noticed the gentle and smiling face of a man pushing his cart with recyclable cans and bottles around town. But then again maybe you haven’t.  Either way, his name is Earl.

Earl is a veteran and a long time Smithtown resident whose early morning walks, covering two to three miles a day, helps keep Smithtown looking its best.  Not that the town doesn’t do an excellent job of keeping the streets clean.  But Earl has added to the town’s beautification by picking up litter he comes across on his journeys on Main Street, especially on weekends when the town crew is off duty. The town has never looked better…all thanks to Earl.

Earl also keeps neat and clean the memorial site, located at the corner of Lawrence Avenue and Main Street, in honor of Courtney Sipes.  Courtney
