    Ernie is another of our mentors that has passed and he will be missed by the many that knew him in our industry. He served our industry, our community and most of all our Country well and for that service I am grateful!

    We are so sorry about Ernie. He was a wonderful man full of humor & life. Our older children still talk about sitting in front of our livingroom window on 13th street looking across the street into your familyroom at your big screen tv(watching movies without the sound) Its one of their favorite childhood memories. May he rest in peace and may you all be comforted at this time. Tom & Karen
