She is preceded in death by her parents William and Ethel Johnson, sons Anthony Neal, James Lynn Martin, and daughter Sharon Louise Poff. She is survived by her loving husband of 60 years, Jimmy Martin; daughters Juanema and Mark Underwood, Mary and Lewis Presley, and Shirley and Ray Wammock; daughter-in-law Marilyn Martin, son in-law Bob Poff. She raised Amber and Michael as her own children; sisters Mary Gee and Sherry Barraza; numerous grandchildren, great-grandchildren and two great-great-grandsons, nephews and nieces.

Ernestine was a beautiful role model to many. SO full of love for everyone around her with only a phone call away for anyone who needed prayer or a shoulder to cry on. She would listen and pray. She was a pillar of the family. So full of Joy always making us laugh. With all those warm hugs she gave. We are all so honored by all the love. A true Prayer Warrior, you are truly going to be missed but never forgotten. We Love you! I'm so glad God gave me such a pretty woman to love, because I didn't believe I deserved her. I thank God for our lives together because it was such a blessing to me.

I love you and you'll always be my fweet fweet fweety my Pumpkin Center Belle.
