Sharon and family.....Rick was a wonderful human being....He always has a smile on his face and a warm greeting for anyone he met. So very sorry for you loss. He was a great guy. Laurie (Hutton) Crooks

Rick was a great inspiration to me when he was teaching woodshop back in the 1970s. Over the years, I would occasionally run into him, and it was always a pleasure to talk with him. He left a lasting impression on me that I've carried ever since.

RIP Mr. Ernstrom. Sharon i will pray for you. Love Luann

Coach Ernstrom's dedication to the welfare of his swimmers extended far beyond the pool, and endured long after their graduation. A permanent memorial at the new high school pool is long overdue.

So sorry to hear. Rick was such a great Head Swim Coach at our High School. Our children thought the very best of him, as we all did. Beverly and Chris Johnson

Coach Ernstrom was such a great man with a huge heart and love for every individual who came through his program over the years.
