I belatedly (very belatedly) learned of Ernest´s passing. He was a wonderful, optimistic, generous man who gave me great advice when I was starting out at Human Rights Watch. I remain struck by his decision to offer his talents and services to HRW after retiring. You see a way to help and you give. When I left for new opportunities, Ernest offered me advice, a good bye lunch, and good wishes. It meant the world. I don´t know if he knew how much it meant.

What a special person Ernest was. I knew him as the lifetime friend of my close friend Gerry Weiler. (Gerry had been the longtime partner of my sister Sally). Gerry and Ernest were boyhood friends in Germany and remained close after their families fled Nazi Germany and moved to NYC. Of all the people Gerry had loved in his life, Ernest was dearest to him; as only friends with such long shared experiences can be. I met Ernest several times and was taken by his warmth and gentle manner as well as his open interest in others. I was especially touched by his obvious affection for Gerry. Despite their adult maturity and accomplishments, together they could still be boys. Upon learning of Ernest's committed work with Human Rights Watch, my respect for him grew even more and I know Gerry and Sally were impressed with, and proud of, Ernest's work there. The world has lost a warm, bright light. I am grateful for the love and support Ernest gave Gerry during their 7+ decades together, and for all the heart and time he gave to countless others who needed his voice. My heart goes out to Margit, Lisa and Nancy.
