Ernie graduated from Hunter High school in West Valley, Utah. He had a lot of great friends throughout the years. He loved watching the Dallas Cowboys with his brother Patrick and fishing with his dad and brother James. He loved watching the UTES, the Utah Jazz and the Boston Red Socks. Ernie was always down to play some family bingo and always ready to watch Braveheart and Gladiator. He loved hanging out with his dad, and always made sure his mom was taken care of. They were his best friends. But his biggest accomplishment in his life was the birth of his son Ryker, who he loved so dearly," Love you son!" He also loved his nieces and nephews so very much. He was a guy with a big heart, a great smile and an infectious laugh. He always lit up the room and was always ready to tell a great joke. He always made sure his sister was his biggest fan, and he was her protector.  -Forever 22 Q!
