Ernie Benson

I was shocked to hear of Ernie’s passing. I knew Ernie well when he lived in The Pas, MB, and we made numerous flyfishing trips together, along with the rest of our crew. Just a really good guy, knowledgeable and always ready for a fishing trip. I have some great memories.

Ernie guided us flyfishing on 2 occasions. He was very kind and patient and a great teacher. He knew where the fish were. We will miss him-he was a very special person!

Marnie, Darren and family,

Thinking of you all, as you journey thru this difficult time.

Marnie, Darren and family,

So very sorry to hear of the passing of your Father. Thinking of you, as you journey thru this

Ernie was a talented, smart man. Our son was so amazed at his garage project that was so awesome. I remember Ernie and Gary Hodgins spending countless lunch hours discussing fishing and hunting at Domtar. He will be missed.

Condolences to the family for your lose. Ernie was the most senior active Fly fisherman on the Nipigon River. Tremendous practical knowledge has been lost. Also, he was a very solid Pulpmill Superintendant and good to work with.

Dear Linda and family,
When I was little, I would always be so excited to go to Nipigon to hang out with my Benson cousins.
Ernie used to take me for dune buggy rides down all the back lanes.

I couldn’t tell you the name of the lake where he took me fishing but I certainly have a vivid memory of catching more fish then I have ever caught in my life. It was pouring rain and we just kept on fishin. The excitement was so great that the worms couldn’t get on my hook fast...

Linda, my deepest condolences on your husband's passing.

Linda and Family So very sorry to hear this news. Thinking about all of you at this difficult time.
