Hello....my name is Renee. I am from sonoma County. I'm trying to reach Ernie Jr. My condolences to the family. I realize this is a few years back. However, I just came across an entire bin of financials. Quite odd. Certified documents. And I do not feel fight having them. If anyone gets this, I can be reached at 707-478-0304. May peace be with you

Ernie was a very good man...as genuine as they come. He had a great smile and zest for life. I was very fortunate to know him and he will be sorely missed but not forgotten. My deepest condolences to his family and friends.

Uncle Ernie was a quiet pleasant guy, very easy to get along with. He surely will be missed by us all. Uncle Ernie and my dad, Louis, owned a couple of bars in Mountain View. One night after closing down the Mountain View park, Ernie ran all the way to the 108 Club! Run?? My father told me he ran track in high school. Ernie loved Mountain View and his ranch in Oakdale.
