Ernest “Ernie” Eugene Exline, age 69, of Exline Road, passed away Friday, September 12, 2025, at Meritus Medical Center in Hagerstown, MD.

Born Tuesday, June 5, 1956, in Berkeley Springs, WV, he was the son of the late Paul D. and Alice B. Hull Exline.

Ernie was a family man, he loved his wife, sons, daughter, and grandchildren fiercely. When he wasn’t working, he was with his family. He was proud and consistently attended sporting events to cheer on his grandchildren. He enjoyed hunting, fishing, and driving RC cars. He enjoyed music by Conway Twitty and Elvis. In the summers you’d find him in a pair of cutoff shorts and barefoot. He fed hundreds of hummingbirds with his many feeders. He loved to make people laugh, and always made others smile. He was harmlessly ornery, a tad inappropriate. To know Ernie was to love him.

He worked for S&S Hauling and Excavating in Needmore, Pennsylvania.

He is survived by his loving wife of 25 years Robin Exline, three sons; Keith Exline and wife Brenda of Hancock, MD, Todd Exline and wife Sara of Warfordsburg, PA and Dalton Exline of Hancock, MD, one daughter, Jessica Riggleman of Kitzmiller, MD., nine grandchildren; Brooke Stotler, Mercedes Exline, Josh Exline, Easton Exline, Laci Exline, Lane Exline, Cora Exline, Aubrianna Eickhoff and Addilynn Eickhoff, one great grandchild, Iris Walker, two brothers; Anthony "Dale" Exline and wife Trudy, Donald Lee Exline and wife Brenda both of Hancock, MD, as well as numerous nephews and nieces.
