Thomas Rost wrote a sympathy message

“During the 1950s I would spend 1-2 weeks just about every summer in Silver Lake with Barb and Jim. Their house was near downtown and at that time the house had no running water, no electricity, no indoor bathroom. I was just a kid, so that was more an adventure instead of an inconvenience. I sent those days hanging out with Ernie, riding bikes, hiking in the fields, milking the cow, catching bullheads, playing with model cars and just having a grand time. Best wishes to the family. Tom Rost”
