Obituary of Ernie (Colonel) Hynes (CARD OF THANKS)

The family of the late Ernie (Colonel) Hynes would like to express our thanks and appreciation to all for the kindness and support shown to our family during this difficult time. Your phone calls, online condolences, flowers, donations and gifts of food were greatly overwhelming. Your visits to the funeral home and funeral meant so much to us. I would like to personally thank Rev. Tanya for such a wonderful service for my dad. I am sure he is at rest now beside the love of his loving wife, Shirley.
Always loved and missed so much, but both will never be forgotten.
