Grandpa Ernie will be missed. When I think of him, I think of an adventurous guy who loved flying his airplane. He gave me a special gift that no one else could give; my dad-Gary. I love you, and will miss your smiles.

Grandpa,
I cannot thank you enough for giving me the best dad in the world, Gary! I loved your sense of adventure and I think you passed that down to a lot of us in the family. You lived a long rich life and I hope you are in a wonderful place with the ones we loved that are no longer with us. I'm sure you are onto a "new flight!"
Love, Miki

Hello my family,
My heart breaks for each of you at this time. I pray that our Heavenly Father would hold you in his arms and comfort you and wipe away your tears. I thank Ernie for having a brood of kids that I warmly and proudly call my family. And I thank God that I got to marry one of Ernies kids. You are all so special to me. Our earthly Fathers have passed away but our Heavenly Father will be there for us forever. My love to you all!

God Bless,
Susie
