Ernest Gibson Obituary

Ernest "Ernie" Luther Gibson, 72, of Westminster, went home to be with the Lord on Monday, August 25, 2025, at his home. Born September 7, 1952, in Westminster, he was the son of the late James Earl and Julia Corrine (Sheffey) Gibson. Ernie was a proud veteran of the United States Air Force. He spent most of his working career as an electronic technician. Throughout his decades of service, he repaired countless electronic devices and gadgets, often doing so at little or no cost to those in need. Ernie enjoyed riding his bike, fishing, and talking about the Lord. Surviving Ernie is his daughter Angela Huckaby and husband Frederick of Ft. Worth, TX; grandchildren Obshanique Combs and husband Jareid, Christian Huckaby and wife Reignna, Keondrick Huckaby, and Sir Frederick Huckaby; great grandchildren Syer Combs and Christian Huckaby; brother, James Gibson of Reisterstown and wife Judy Gibson; nieces, Shonnell Gibson and JuLea Gibson; nephew, Steven Gibson; sister, Irene Rebecca Thomas of Hagerstown and husband Charles Thomas (deceased); nieces, Kimberly Gibson and Carmen Bowens; and a host of nieces, nephews, and extended family and friends. Services are private. In lieu of flowers, memorial contributions may be made to Pritts Funeral Home and Chapel to defray costs. Online condolences may be offered to the family at www.prittsfuneralhome.com.

We send our deepest condolences to the family. Ernie was a fine human being with whom my husband and I became acquainted and further developed a wonderful relationship over the years. We will remember Ernie as a devoted man of God. He will be sorely missed at St. John Roman Catholic Church, where he was a semi-regular at daily Mass. We love you and miss you already! Dean and Joan Ditman

Ernest was a very sweet man who I talked to at St. John Church. He was very devoted to Jesus & loved the Blessed Mother Mary!!
I´ve missed seeing him at Church lately!
