Norma, Chad and Tami:
What a great guy, I will miss him greatly. Ernie got me the job in Phoenix at Yellow Freight and told me he would be really upset if I quit college to load trucks. I stayed in school and here I am today. Ernie also taught me how to hit a golf ball from behind a tree as we played golf back in 1991. I still hit behind trees and I still use the shot he taught me to hit.
Our thoughts are with you.

Norma, Tami, Chad and families,
I'm so sad to hear about Ernie's passing. I have many fond memories of him and how welcoming he was to everyone he met. All the good times we had at your family events, the daycare, and when he took me to buy my first new car so the salesmen wouldn't take advantage of a young lady... He was truly one in a million.
