Brent Webster wrote a sympathy message

“I go back to working with Ernie on Habitat builds in Ottawa. He was an incredibly hard worker and the nicest guy to work with. Covid hit and that kind of fell apart. Then a couple years ago I met him at Men's Shed in Ottawa West. He was the go-to guy to finalize many of our projects. He will be missed greatly.”
