OSGOOD, Earl G.

Dec. 27, 1928 – July 16, 2017 Earl G. Osgood, 88, died July 16. He was a United States Navy veteran. Born in New York, Earl later moved to Temperance, Michigan where he was a builder/general contractor. In 1976, he moved his family to Lake Havasu City. He then started his company, Mohave Fire Protection Sales & Service. Years later he sold the business with plans to retire -- or so he thought. Soon after, he purchased Havasu Frozen Yogurt, which he and his wife operated for many years. He also started Mohave Antique & Classic Car Appraisal, where he fulfilled his love for cars. Earl was a devoted Christian and was a member of the First Southern Baptist Church of Kingman. Earl is survived by his high school sweetheart and wife of 67 years, Elinore (Tolly) Osgood, son and daughter-in-law, Brian and Bambi Osgood, son-in-law Walter Dibert, five grandchildren and six great- grandchildren. Earl was preceded in death by his son Steven Osgood and daughter Karen (Osgood) Dibert. A private family service will be held in his honor with Pastor Paul Daniel of First Southern Baptist Church presiding. The family requests that donations be made to a hospice facility of your choice in Earl’s name or to the First Southern Baptist Church of Kingman. Services were placed in the care of Lietz-Fraze Funeral Home & Crematory.
