[NFBofSC] We Kare Committee condolences

[Justin Williams]

I really will miss Ernest.

 

He was great, and a wonderful person.

 

He tole me all about how he went through the school for the deaf and blind, and how he woke up being push or pulled out of his top bunk bed.

 

Justin

Ernest and myself played one time in the early 80’s on the job man caravan show.  It was a blast.  He could play those bongo drums and music as well.

I have known Ernest Gallman for many years.  He was not just an exemplary Columbia Chapter member but he also had a reputation as a DJ for many parties, weeding receptions and the like.  He will be greatly missed and well remembered.

I wasn’t going to say anything here because I’ve been in constant contact with Ernest since the time, he went into the Lowman Home Nursing Facility. But a friend of mine was surprise to see so few comments and or words of condolences in memory of our brother. After all, he was a long time NFB member and when he was well, he attended the Columbia chapter meetings. I dubbed him the Blind Peoples DJ. I’ll miss him and regret not going to visit with him at the Lowman Home.
