He was always a complete gentleman. He is remembered weekly in my mass intentions.

I met Ernie in 1979 when I was trying to make the Dallas Cowboys. Although I was there for a short period through camp, I found that Ernie was a real genuine personality. He once told me I reminded him of Walt Garrison which I will always take as a great compliment. May God bless his family at this difficult time, and always celebrate his life as he was truly a great man, and a big reason why Dallas had the success they did at the time. God Bless

I have been a fan of the Cowboys and and their coaches like Tom and Ernie for many years. They have given me many hours of great times. I had a lot of respect for those fine coaches. Our prayers are with the family and loved-ones in their great lost.

To J.J. and Family,
My thought and prayers are with you (J.J.) and your family during this time. I went to school with J.J. at ESS and I spent many days and night in Highland Shores. "Weeping may endure for a night but joy will come in the morning." Just remember he is in a better place.
Love

I have been Cowboys fan since the
mid-1970's and was a fan not only
of the players but the coaches too.
So sorry to hear that Ernie passed
away.
God bless the Stautner family.
