Husband, father, friend.Born 19 March, 1960 in Roswell, NM to Joyce and Rex Earick, Ernerst passed on 27 April, 2013 from cardiac arterial disease. Yet his emotional heart and spirit were invincible, driving his passions for card magic innovation, music, cooking, books, philosophy and especially his coworkers, friends, and family in whom he lives on and who lovingly remember him. A gathering to celebrate his life and spirit will be held at a later date. Many thanks to every one of the wonderful people who cared for him at the Heart Hospital; and to the good friends who supported and continue to support his family.
