My heart goes out to all of Dooks' friends and family members. We have lost so many wonderful Hog members over the years and now Dook. Thank you, Sir, for sharing your talent and warm sole.

It's with a heavy heart that I'm letting everyone know that our friend, DOOK (Earl Keese) passed away today after a battle with cancer. Please keep his family in your thoughts and prayers, and also please remember all of our friends in Australia as they deal with these devastating fires.

I am so sorry to hear of his passing. I always enjoyed his photos and we have been considering a trip to Australia and I was hoping to meet Earl, as we were planning to drive from Surfers Paradise to Sydney. I sent him a PM January 2. RIP Earl. Also, all of the Australian people affected by the fires are in our thoughts.

Such sad news. Earl was a very kind man. It showed on his many posts. He always had good things to say. A good photographer, drone pilot and musician. I had the privilege of communicating with him by email on occasion. He would send me song tracks he had been working on. One was a Pasty Cline song "Walking after Midnight" featuring his daughter singing and his son on guitar with Earl playing keyboards. I listened to it today in his honor with eyes full of tears. I'll miss you my friend. Go rest high on that mountain, your work here is over.

Words are a poor substitute for a person with a huge heart. Earl always responded to the images that I posted but until this day I took his comments for granted. I would have liked to have known Earl personally but distance was an issue. Rest in peace my friend and keep pressing that shutter

I have searched in vain for a Family Or Funeral notice for Earl, my friend. It seems it would have been very private........

I am happy to have saved all the music and his films of the beaches etc. There will be no more.
