Dear Ernie

R.I.P

Ernie,

It was so great to have a friendship with u. Rest in peace.

Ernie was good friend from Emory. We graduated together along with my twin sister Ann and Pat Mittenthal. This is sad. Earnie touched many lives.

"Auntie Mame" said, "Life is a banquet, and most poor suckers are starving to death". Ernie was not one of life's "poor suckers". He came to the banquet that is life and partook, thoroughly enjoying himself and sharing his pleasure with others. We will all miss him. Here's to a life well lived.

Ernie, It's been half a century since we were DBS classmates. You are always a strong supporter of our class re-union activities. In recent years our getting togehter in those regular HK Tuesday dinners do bring back fond memories. Dearest to our heart... you Fat Enrnie laughs will be soarly missed. God bless!

Dear Ernie,
I am glad to know you as a long time friend and mentor. Life is short. Somehow I was back in Charlotte from L.A last week, and we were watching game 7 of the NBA FINAL after you were back from the hostpital last Thursday. That was the most memorable NBA FIANL to me. We were cheering for the Heat, drinking wine, and Italian dinner from your friend next door. we will miss you.

Ernie,
You were one of the unique and special persons I have had the good fortune to know. I will miss you, your kind words, your e-mails, . . . May God hold you close. Bill

Ernie was a beacon of light and touched all who knew him. The world shines a little less bright today as we mourn the loss of this gentle soul. Randy, Melba and family please accept our sincere condolences.
