So sad to learn of Ernie’s passing! Met Ernie years ago in my loving to trade cars era. My son inherited my love of trading vehicles and continued working with Ernie until his retirement! Many a deal we made with his help. Ernie was a delightful man with whom to deal and both my son and I enjoyed knowing and working with him! My condolences to Ernie’s family and loved ones. RIP, friend!
