It makes me sad that my first thought when I saw the title of this thread is "Oh No". I'm hoping to hear Ernie on the radio again soon. His voice defined a lot of nights in my childhood.

On the perfect clear night when I was growing up in Virginia I could tilt my antenna just right and pick up WJR out of Detroit... I still try sometimes (even though the Tigers moved off of WJR a few years ago).

I didn't know much about Ernie until I saw the interview last year with Bob Costas. Seems like a classy fellow who represents the Tigers well. Wishing him all the best...

A great tidbit on Ernie was that he was traded from the Atlanta Crackers to the Brooklyn Dodgers for major league catcher Cliff Dapper. He is definitely one of the finest gentleman to grace the Earth.

A wonderful gentleman who was kind enough to grace our Old Judge book by writing the forward. God bless Ernie!
