Ernie Charles Jr, 83, of Winchester, Virginia, passed away on May 8, 2024.
Ernie, born Ernest William Charles Jr on April 10, 1941, in Sussex, New Jersey, was known for his love of life and infectious laughter. He had a penchant for 1950's music, with a special admiration for Elvis Presley. Vintage car shows were a particular delight for Ernie, who enjoyed not only attending them but also restoring vintage vehicles himself. His homemade pizza was a favorite among family and friends.
Ernie was preceded in death by his wife, Patricia Charles, and is survived by his four children: Elizabeth, Bill, Barbie, and David. He also leaves behind nine grandchildren, Jennifer, Jessica, Michael, Sarah, Bradley, Wayne, Nathan, Christy, and Danelle, as well as sixteen great-grandchildren and two great-great-grandchildren.
The family has chosen not to hold a memorial service for Ernie. In his memory, contributions can be made to the Winchester SPCA.
Rest in peace, Ernie. Your laughter and love for life will be deeply missed.
We'll plant real trees for you in Ernest's memory and display your contribution forever.
