I’m so deeply sorry to hear of Ernie’s passing. I only met him once and never realized he was the brother of my friend Anne , from our school days and that he married a Scudder gal whom I’m also related to through marriage. Sending condolences and praying the Lord will bless and comfort your hearts and give you His peace as you go forward.
