Uncle Ernie is the epitome of the fun uncle. He was quick to smile and chuckle and always with a well told story.
As brother to my father, of blessed memory Ernie brought the antics of a baby brother and had a charming lightness in his humor and life perspective. His ability to plan and create an imaginative itinerary was enjoyed by his big brother and sister in law and many others who enjoyed his travel acumen.
His sly smile after one of his stories or remarks is the image I will hold. His ferocious love for Roz and his family, sets a high standard for a meaningful, abundant life.
His memory is a blessing.
