<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size:12pt;font-family:Aptos, sans-serif;">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.</span></p>
