Dear Velte Family,
I am a former employee who worked at E. I. DuPont during the same time that Ernie did. I want to send all of you my deepest sympathy, thoughts, and prayers. I want you to know that even though Ernie and I only saw each other periodically because of working in different areas, every time we came together, it was honestly the high light of my day. Ernie was always thoughtful of others, made you laugh when there wasn´t anything to laugh about, and would always say hi regardless of the situation. Ernie is going to be greatly missed but not forgotten. Sincerely, Mark Prohaska.

Dear Cecelia,
It has been so many years since I have seen you, and I never had the pleasure of meeting your beloved, Ernie. Have wonderful memories of our days at Sacred Heart, BEHS and then St Joseph's Hospital School of Nursing. My sincerest condolences on your loss. May God bless you and your family and give you support at this most difficult time.
Sending you much love,
Beverly Jennings Raschke

Dear Velte Family,
I was so sorry to learn of Ernie´s passing. Although I seldom saw him, it was always such a pleasure to talk and laugh with him. He was a really nice, kind person. May God comfort you until you´re with Ernie again, and may he Rest In Peace.
Sincerely,
