Sharp family, I only met Ernie a few years ago, but I immediately felt a bond that transcends time - like we were always together in spirit. When he shared stories with me, he was just a member of the old gang relating some adventure or funny incident. I particularly enjoyed the rides he gave me in his convertible and the tour of Udall. Ernie was clearly a soul mate and he will be dearly missed.

To The Sharp Family- I am sorry for your recent loss. Earnie will always be remembered by me as a fun loving guy. I will never forget that he taught me to do the "Twist" and his dancing with me to, "Shake Your Booty" by K.C. and the Sunshine Band. Those were good times that will always be cherished in my memory. Love always- Lisa Langley
