Condolence: You undeniably had a very special place in my heart, Ernie. You had the ability to make me smile even on the worst of days. There were many, many times during last couple months of my pregnancy when i felt so miserable. But no matter what, I could always count on you to make me smile and laugh. Your memory will surely live on in all who knew you. My heart is with your family during this very difficult time. I pray that you are riding through the most beautiful heaven that God could have created for you, with nothing but open roads and blue skies. You will be so greatly missed, Ernie. May your soul rest in eternal peace.
