Ernie was a rural mail carrier for 40 years. His first love though was ranching. He served three terms on the FISD School Board and 29 years on the Gillespie County Water Control and Improvement Board. He served from 1999-2005 on the Greenwood Cemetery Board. In addition, Ernie volunteered his time with the Gillespie County Livestock Show as a spotter at the livestock sales, and served as a Little League baseball coach.
The family would like to thank the healthcare providers at Hill Country Memorial Hospice and Celeste Memory Care for the love they showed Dad while under their care. Also, thank you to the many friends that touched Ernie's life and to the family and friends that have reached out to offer comfort to our family.
Although Alzheimers disease affected Ernie's mind, it never affected his spirit. May peace be with him as he receives his new body in Christ.
The family requests that any donations be made to the Quinn Kott Scholarship Fund, through St. Mary's School; the Quinn Daniel Kott Endowment Fund at Hill Country Memorial Hospital, Fredericksburg United Methodist Church, or to the charity of their choice.
Arrangements were under the direction of Schaetter Funeral Home.
