Ernie was the greatest and a good man! He will be missed.

Thank you for your contribution to the games Mr. Hays. Fly high sir.

As lifetime Cardinals fans, we enjoyed Ernie's wonderful organ over the years at both Busch Stadiums 2 and 3. He has been missed since his retirement and now due to his death. RIP Ernie Hays!

As a life long Cardinal fan, I loved that you played organ & not can music! I especially loved when you played the Budweiser commercial song, I always found myself clapping. You brought a unique wary of rallying the crowd.
Your family has my deepest sympathy in your loss. God bless!

Thank you for being a part of my childhood memories. You were one of a kind.

Ernie will be remembered as an important member of the St. Louis Cardinals family. He was still playing when I left St. Louis.....RIP.

As a child I remember what a good friend he was to my mother,Patricia Ann Emerson Hays,He is a Legacy,and every time my little girl plays her organ we will always think of him.

The best in the business, period! Ernie Hays was as much about the Cardinals as Busch Stadium / Brock/ Gibson / Ozzie / Buck. He will never be replaced, only remembered and missed. RIP Ernie.

Ernie will be sorely missed. I definitely will miss his emails with jokes and comments! He was a master musician and would light up the Center for Spiritual Living with his music.
My love and blessings to Loretta, his beautiful wife.
Love,
