We are so very saddened to hear of Ernie's passing. He always wore a smile in our office. We knew when Ernie entered by the sound of his voice alone. We will miss his greeting and distinctive tone. Please accept our deepest sympathy and may he rest in peace.
Dr. Bob and Terri Marchese and our entire Dental Team.

This has broken my heart. Your father held a special place in the lives and hearts of those at Brothers of Mercy Trier Woods. I will forever remember his smile and kindness . I am grateful he was part of my life for a short time. God bless his family and this difficult time.
