Born in Crockett, Calif., Ernie, as most people knew him, was a Rodeo resident for the majority of his life. He served his country, enlisting with the Navy in December 1942 as a Carpenter's Mate 2nd Class USNR, and was honorably discharged in November 1945. He worled for Union Oil Company at Oleum, Calif., until retirement in 1985.
