Ernest was born July 3, 1984 in Waco, TX to Carolyn Anderson and Larry Hamilton. He grew up in Killeen, TX, where he attended various schools.
Ernest loved to barbecue, and his briskets were always a hit at family gatherings. We will miss his playfulness and listening to him talk endlessly about topics, theories, and events he was passionate about. Some might even say he was a bit of a conspiracy theorist.
In addition to his parents, Ernest leaves behind his brother Larry Anderson, sisters Charla Anderson-Pawlata (Josef) and LaRonda Anderson (James), nephews Malekai Pawlata and Noah Anderson, nieces Rhayne Pawlata, Journey Kestner, KJ Pawlata, and Shiloh Kestner, and a whole host of other relatives and friends including his Aunt Lisa Deas and Uncle Cassius Deas, who showed him a tremendous amount of support and love throughout his life.
The funeral will be a private ceremony with close family members and friends.
