Kerreigh ERNST
It is with great sadness that we announce the sudden passing of Kerreigh Ernst at his home on September 16, 2016. Devoted husband for 48 years and best friend of Linda (nee Howick). Proud father to Shane and Ryan (Raelene) and doting grandpa to Bevin Elizabeth.
Kerreigh was born in England in 1942, to Veronica and Theodore. Kerreigh came to Canada at the age of 4 with his mother, a WWII war bride. Kerreigh would become the big brother to nine siblings and will be missed by Wayne (Brenda), Craig (Carla), Wendy, Ted (Judy), Tina (Bob), Mary-Anne (Jim), Monica, Joe and Tim (Cristel) and many nieces and nephews.
Throughout a lifetime of service Kerreigh touched the lives of many within the business, basketball and faith communities. Work that gave him purpose, meaning and great joy.
