Condolence: This afternoon I learned of Ernie's passing. He was such a great man and a pleasure to work with. He was our forklift tech at RFS for years. While its been over 5 years since I worked there his smile, laugh and humor was and will be hard to forget. My deepest condolences to his family and loved ones. They broke the mold on him.

Condolence: To Mrs. Hodgkins, Debbie, Ernie and the rest of the family, please accept my deepest sympathy for your loss of your best friend, dad, grandpa and great grandpa. Growing up down the street and spending countless hours at your house, I will always have such fond memories of "Mr. Hodgkin", a no-nonsense but loving person. He was always willing to help Debbie and I do our multitude of projects and could fix just about anything. My love, thoughts and prayers are with you all at this difficult time.
