Ernestine Kreuzer Watson Obituary
Ernestine Kay Kreuzer Watson, 58 of Oak Island, Texas, gained her angel wings, surrounded by her family and loved ones, on July 15, 2021, after a hard-fought battle with cancer over the past 2 years. Ernestine was born on February 25, 1963 in Anahuac, Texas. Ernestine graduated from Anahuac High School and loved living on the waters of Double Bayou.
Ernestine was preceded in death by her parents, Ernest Kreuzer and Katherine Johnson Kreuzer; brother, Ernest Clifford Kreuzer; sister, Charlene Kreuzer Smith and grandchild, Layla Gilbert, and by her late husband, James David Watson (Jimbo).
She is survived by her loving partner, companion and best friend, Joe Haynes. Her son, Robert Rogers and wife Shelia, daughters, Jamie Bishop and partner Jayson Merren, Amber Watson-Gilbert and husband Patrick, and Clint Monteau, her "son from anotha motha". Grandchildren, Jose Grande, Kalee, RaeLynn and Kason Gilbert, Courtney Butler, Shawn Rogers, and Travis Watson. Great-grandchildren, Keeley Butler, Bryleigh Brown, Lane Butler and Khaslee Rogers, and sister, Dianna Kreuzer as well as many nieces and nephews.
After Jimbo’s death, she carried on the business known as Channel Marker 17 in Oak Island, Texas. Her restaurant is known area wide for more than just its good food. Ernestine was an AMAING cook, but her hospitality, her laughter, her love for family, wonderful friends, and great customers made Channel Marker 17 a successful business. Her customers looked forward to the friendly atmosphere that surrounded her. Her presence there will be truly missed.
Ernestine's favorite hobbies were cooking, fishing, going to the casinos, playing darts, dominoes, and cards with her beloved family and friends.
Services will be Monday, July 19, 2021, at First Baptist Church located at 405 Magnolia Street, Anahuac, Texas. Visitation with family and friends will be 2PM-4PM with services beginning at 4PM.
