Family of Ernie, I was so sorry to hear about Ernie. We met when I was working at Thrifty Market in Blaine, and he would come in a lot. He started joking with me and every time we saw each other he would joke. I would see him at the post office or somewhere else in town. He always had a smile and was always laughing.
He is a wonderful memory from my past. Even though I haven’t seen him in a long time, I will miss him a lot.
The wonderful memories you have of him will help a lot to get through the sadness.

Deepest condolences to Elizabeth and family on the passing of Ernie.Ernie’s voice was well known on the amateur radio bands and will be dearly missed as he brought smiles and delight to all with a friendly demeanor and great welcomes to the delight of new and experienced old hams.
