It is with sadness and regret that we have been advised of the passing of another valued servant of Australia and the Royal Australian Corps of Signals. Ernie will be sorely missed by his family and friends.

Our prayers and thoughts are with Ernie’s family at this time.

Messages of condolence may be forwarded to Ernie’s family at:

John & Lucille Hopkins (Ernie’s son-in-law & daughter)

Email hoppy57@tpg.com.au

                        Or

            Mrs Joan Axford

            5 Camoola St

            Keperra QLD 4054

            Phone 07 3351 5758

I had a phone call from ‘Tanker’ Hawken earlier in the day and he informed me that he had been in contact with Ernie & Joan’s grand-daughter and the family was hopeful of conducting the funeral on Tuesday but confirmed funeral details will be advised when known.

Lest We Forget
