She took great pride in her work and had a strong attention to detail, often correcting the doctors and keeping them in line. Ernestine has three children whom she dearly loved. She often challenged them to progress in anything they pursued, not accepting less than personal best. Yet she showed grace and love in times that might not otherwise dictate it. She loved her grandchildren unabashedly, doing unconventional things like midnight swims that helped build their bond with her. Ernestine was an amazing vocalist, filling her home with music and singing in the church choir. She was a brilliant debater, and enjoyed learning and applying information. She was someone of great integrity.
