Ernest, a very close friend of mine and uncle to my best friend John Ingle. I will miss him and my visits to the VA to talk with him and hopefully console and give him some comfort and encouraging words.Words are inadequate for my expression of this loved one. May his family reflect on the memories he left behind and be comforted in his loss.
God be with each of the family members in a special way.
My thoughts are with each one of you.

I’m sorry for your loss. Ernest was a dear friend, who showed me the ropes volunteering at the VA. He also made the best coffee just ask any volunteer.

Just to know the Ingle family was an honor. Ernest’s sister is my aunt by marriage. Ernest was a wonderful person and friend. He always had a smile for everyone. I know he is in heaven with Laura Jane and his suffering is over. He will be greatly missed. My condolences to all the family.
Teresa, Will, Savannah, Jessica, Olivia, and Jeff.
Our prayers will be with you in the coming days,and weeks. With both of us having lost our parents, in years past, we can relate. Allow the Holy Spirit to comfort you when you sense Earnest’s absense
He will be missed by many.

a better place where there is no pain or suffering. I love you Teresa and hope to give you a big hug soon! I wish I could hear the girls sing today. You are blessed in so many ways. I know Ernest will be so very proud of his girls today! God love you all.

Ernest is my great uncle and I have many fond memories of our visits with your Mom and Dad at Albert and Nettie Ingle’s home. Uncle Ernest would always come with a smile on his face, a helping hand, and a story to tell. He was so very proud of you all and I always looked forward to updates and pictures each year. Uncle Ernest touched so many lives in such a positive way and was a blessing to us all. We all share in your loss but the memories we have are abundant. Blessings to you all.
We are so sorry for your loss, We feel honored to have known him, as well as taken care of him on our unit. He will be truly missed, our thoughts and prayers go out to the family.
Teresa: There are no words to adequately express the emotions that we all feel when we lose a parent. I know that you are feeling a deep sense of loss…yet hopefully you can gain some comfort in knowing he is with his Lord. I will pray that God will comfort you over these next few days as you mourn your dad’s passing.
ERNEST WAS MY FRIEND EVEN BEFORE FIRST GRADE. GOOD NEIGHBOR – GOOD FRIEND ALWAYS.
Ernest was a good friend to my father and grandfather. I only had the pleasure of meeting him once, but he was a good host and welcomed me into his home. Please express my condolences on your loss.
