Our thoughts and prayers go out to the Petrone family for your loss. I was just happy I was able to see him in Chicago a few years ok.
Ernie was very special to me. He was one of those original human beings that make everyone else's life more colorful. I wrote a story about him years ago, because he liked to leave "stuff" on my doorstep. He was a practical joker and I loved working along-side him in the bindery. It was hard work. But that's the kind of work Ernie did all his life. When you stand next to someone, at a machine, for ten hours a day, you share philosophies, pet peeves, family stories, and indigestion. I guess I tickled him because he always kept in touch, even though my busy life kept me from keeping in touch ... back. I am ashamed, and sad, that I didn't. My heart goes out to Jackie and their children. He TRULY will be missed. Deborah Cashon Klein
May the love of friends and family carry you through your grief.
I'm so very sorry Mrs. Petrone. I have so many great (and funny) memories of Mr. Petrone, what a tremendous loss. Please accept my family's deepest sympathy for you, Ernie, Christine and the rest of the family. I'll always smile when I think of him. Donna Green (Israel) and family.
So very sorry to hear about Ernest.He will be in our prayers.Leonard & Nora Donatelli
