Earl Kendall

KENDALL EARL May 18, 2022. Earl Kendall was a true Philadelphian. A lifetime Philly sports fan, he played basketball for Central High and graduated from Wharton. Earl met his one true love, the stunning Bobbie Heisler on the Atlantic City Boardwalk and every day since, described her as being even more beautiful on the inside. They married in 1950 and raised two extraordinary daughters. Earl was a devoted son, taking over his family business Kendall's Home Furnishings, which he ran for 40 years, despite dreams of law school. He worked hard and took great pride in helping his family pursue their passions. He disliked receiving gifts almost as much as he loved giving them. Often requesting an item be returned, as he already had a sweater, a shirt, a pair of gloves, you get the picture. He also had quite the sense of humor. Earl was very proud of his independence, his full head of hair and even more so that he was still able to shovel the snow off his front walk and complete his daily regimen of 25 push ups. His smile lit up a room and nobody made him smile more than his grandchildren and great grandchildren, except, perhaps, his beloved wife. Bobbie was not just his, but their whole family's sun, moon and stars. Earl didn't mind playing second fiddle. In fact, recently he admitted that he missed the days when nobody was paying so much attention to him cause they all just wanted Mommom. Earl left this world early Wednesday morning, the same way he lived in it, with little fuss, a great basketball game on the screen and his family all around him. He was adored and will be deeply missed. He is survived by his daughters Sherrie Kendall and Margelle Liss (Shelly), his grandchildren Samantha Feld, Michael Feld (Debra), Ben Liss (Jen) and Jenna Liss (Ethan) and great grandchildren Moshe, Simcha, Bayla and Gali Feld and Mayson, Cameron and Emmy Liss. Graveside Services were held.
