Tons of great memories with the Schirmers as neighbors. Never forget meeting Ernie for the first time when John was building our garage and he came and started helping without even knowing our name. Also our fun days of doing cables. He was quite the guy. Sorry for your loss as a family! Will keep you in our thoughts and prayers during the following days.

Condolence from Mark and Joanie Kenning on March 30th, 2017 6:37 pm

We are so very sorry for the loss of your husband, father and grandfather.
Our prayers are with you during this very sad time. He was so much fun and his sense of humor always made us laugh.
Rest in peace, Uncle Ernie. We love you.

Joanie and Mark Kenning

Cliff,
I am so very sorry to hear of your loss. We had no idea your dad was so ill. At every birthday or grad party we attended he seemed like such a nice soft spoken gentleman.
Please accept our condolences to the whole Shirmer family for this sad loss.
May perpetual light shine upon him.
Love, Kelly Larry and the Twins

Sorry for your loss. Ernie was a good friend and an inspiration to all of us reenactors. He will be greatly missed.

Condolence from John Bessen on March 30th, 2017 11:35 pm

So sorry to hear about Ernie. I cannot even begin to think how many nights I spent camping with him. I have not forgotten those good times and never will. Wish we could have kept the club going forever, just wasn’t meant to be. I wish you all the best.

Condolence from Eileen Heffner on March 31st, 2017 10:12 am

My very deepest sympathies to you all. May God be with you during this time of grief and loss. You all need a break and some TLC. Take care of each other. You are in my prayers. Eileen

Cliff and the Schirmer family,
Although I did not know your father, after reading about him and the messages it’s easy to see he loved his family and country. My sincere sympathy to you all.

Virginia,
I am sorry for your loss – been there, done that.
If there is any way I can help, please let me know.
Sincerely,
Wendy
