My condolences to friends and family of Ernie. I met Ernie at a yard sale he hosted years ago on River Heights Drive, discovered we’d worked in the same factory for a while but hadn’t met, and discovered we had a mutual friend named Jay who was also at the sale. Years later, when I purchased that same piece of property, Ernie was very kind in helping me to locate buried wire and other points of interest on the property.
Barb we are sorry for your loss of Ernie here. John n I know you will again be with him in our heavenly home. What joy that will be.
We miss you both. Be blessed our friend and sister in Christ!
My condolences goes out to the family he will be missed. Ernie I still have the jacket you gave me love always.
Barbie, a sad time but a rejoicing time because of Jesus. He is free from the troubles and chains of this world. And a reunion is coming one day. So glad you could be with him when he went home. Love & prayers.
