Earl Joseph Innis, age 83, passed away peacefully on April 19, 2025 in Two Harbors. Born on December 12, 1941, in Ashland, WI, to Joseph and Angeline Innis.
After graduating high school, he proudly served his country in the United States Navy. While still in service, he married the love of his life, Doris Elaine King, on February 20, 1965. Following his service, Earl dedicated over 30 years to his role as head of maintenance at Lake View Memorial Hospital. Upon retirement, he returned to his roots and fulfilled his dream of hobby farming—working the land with the same devotion and pride that had carried him through every chapter of his life.
Earl was a proud and loving father to Tim (Jan), Ken (Jeanne), his most special Tina, and Joyce. He was a cherished grandfather to Jimmy (Carolina), Josh (Justine), Beth (Matt), Jake, Earl (Nicole), and Charlotte, and a beloved great-grandfather to Anabelle, Tommy, and Adalyn. He is survived by his brothers and sisters: Joe (Peggy), Mary (Skip), Bev, and Margaret (John). Predeceased by his parents, and brother in law Ron Theriault.
In accordance with Earl’s wishes, there will be no services. The family encourages you to remember him by spending time doing what you love, in the way that feels most true to you—just as Earl always did. And raise a Hamm’s Beer (Earl’s favorite).
