I noticed the obit for Ernest in the Register. I am Ernest William Mueller III. My family immigrated to Madison County in 1857. My Grandfather (Ernest Sr.) had sons named Ernest Jr., George and a daughter Emma. What a coincidence. Deepest sympathy.

So sorry for your loss, Greta. Ernie was such a great guy. He changed my mind about education. He was always there . The class clown, but so much deeper.
