He was a hard worker who never missed a day of work regardless of his health conditions. He loved his craft of making eyeglasses. His smiling face and sense of humor will be greatly missed by his co-workers and his many clients. Ernie also had a strong love for music. Since his teenage years, he played the bass guitar in many different bands. In the 1960’s he joined the band Little Joe and the VIP’s. They played at all the popular “night spots” in and around San Antonio. By the late 1970’s, they expanded club dates to include all military installations like the officers clubs, NCO clubs, and the USO. Ernie touched many lives. His witness and frank sense of humor will be forever missed. We will miss you Dad!
