My sweet and amazing Uncle Ernie was the ultimate big brother for my mother. She thought the world of him and all of his accomplishments. I appreciated the conversations we enjoyed and only wish I had lived closer to had enjoyed more. He was an astute business man and a gregarious man to be with. You will be missed though your legacy will live on through Georgia and Pete.
