I am sorry for your loss. Ernest and the guys at Partee Pipe and Septic were part of my high school years when a handfull of us radioed. I have so many fond memories. He was a good man and a great influence on the men who worked for him and for everyone he met. This world will be a bit dimmer without him.

The love you shared for them will not be forgotten. Not will the love you shared for me…even if it did mean you had to share your birthday with me! I love you birthday buddy. Untill we meet again. Tell uncle Jimmy me and the girls say hi!

We are heartbroken to learn Ernest is no longer with us. I’m so grateful for meeting Jo & Ernest 38 years ago & watching their family grow. He adored all his family but still took the time to share kindness & his smile with others. He was a true example of devotion to his family. Our prayers to Jo & the kids and Rest in Paradise to our dear friend, Ernest.
