Erine will be missed sorry for your loss. He was a good friend I met Ernie at Bob Bowlins Gas station when I worked at A&G Auto Parts and he would always be drinking his Dr.Pepper everytime He was Around. He was always joking around with me. I want to tell his son Don that your dad was a great guy and dont ever forget that.

Sending condolences to the Hallmark family. Ernest was one fine and friendly man. Never saw him without a smile.
I'll always remember when he used to hang out at the service station on Huntington.
He was a christian man as anyone that knew him would agree.
May GOD bring solace to the family and strength to go on.
