Robert Ernst

Bob will always have a special place in our familys heart. He was special and always a gentleman. A man of great faith. RIP

It was an honor meeting Bob. It was a true blessing seeing his beautiful smile at the Hospice Attic store and how he shared his positive outlook at life in general. He was indeed a very special man and he will be deeply missed. RIP Marylia Roque (attic Volunteer)

I had the privilege of working with Bob at the Attic and what a joy he was to know. Such a gentle kind soft spoken gentleman. I would never have guessed his age. He surely is missed by us all.

Oh my goodness, what memories! From the first batch of day lilies to informal chats to the wonderful letters containing articles of support as I began my work in ministry, the Ernst's arms encircled the Williams family like a comforter for well over 50 years. What a reunion he must be enjoying with Mrs Ernst, Janet, Ilene and Irene, plus other loved ones! The Clock restaurant will never be the same. It was our lifeline to the Ernst's after we had moved away from 70th Street. Well done, good...

We lived across the street from Bob for 15 years up until his move to Merritt Island. His kindness, gentle presence, and authentic nature has been missed since his move and we are deeply saddened to hear of his passing. From the stories Bob told, I know he and his wife faced a good deal of loss throughout their lives. Despite this, Bob always spoke with gratitude and a love for life and his connections to others. He was so kind to our daughter, keeping an eye out for little treasures at...

Mr. Ernst was my neighbor many years ago. He and his wife were always so kind and loving to my family and I. He was a man of wisdom and loved the Lord. He will truly be missed. May he rest in God's perfect peace!

Mr. Ernst was a long time customer of ours at Davis Gas. He would often stop in our office and chat about different topics. Not matter which topic we talked about, Mr.Ernst always tied the Lord into our conversations. He was a deeply religious man and I admired him greatly for sharing his faith with us. One sweet gift he gave me shortly after I married my husband was a framed artwork that talked about the meaning of marriage. It's hanging on my wall and makes me think of Mr. Ernst often. He...

Bob was my assistant usher at the 8:30 service at First Pres. in Gainesville. He was always willing to help out where needed. Bob was an aircraft mechanic in WW2, I was a aircraft mechanic in the Air Force in the 60's. We were able to share many stories and articles on aircraft. I was excited for Bob when he told me he was chosen for an Honor Flight. I am glad he was able to make that trip. He will be missed.
