Even though we only met Ernest and his family when he came to INOVA Loudoun Rehab Center, we are blessed to have met them. The way the family loves and honors Ernest made such an impression, and we can tell what a very special man he was. We send our condolences to Madeline and the entire family.

Met Ernie some 35 + years ago as a young teenager. He was always interested in young people and thier passion for hot rods. Always a pleasant man to talk too. Will be missed greatly!!
Mr.Spinks was a good neighbor of ours. Cliff & I knew him and his family for over 20 + years.I remember him coming down our road with his backhoe and Cliff and Ernie would talk about their backhoes and equipment..He brought many a smiles over the years. He also had a great love of animals like I have,and we would talk about our critters. He had a soft heart towards stray kitties, and one of his kitties became one of mine. He liked my duck pond and had ducks also at the time..Cliff & I have fond memories over the years of seeing Mr.Spinks tinkering and always working on some type of machinery,or stopping by just to chit chat. I remember when we first moved in..I got locked out and here comes Ernie and helped me break in..I was going to break a window, but he said no..I had a door with 6 panes in it and he broke 1 little pane, and told me go to Nichols Hardware and it would cost just a few dollars for it instead of breaking a big window.. The thing we will always remember is what a big heart he had and what a great neighbor. He will be remembered and missed..God bless..
Cliff & Laurie Hott
