Obituary: Ernie Schwindt

'Ernie worked at Howe Sound Pulp & Paper as a longshoreman and locomotive operator. He loved working in his garden and tending his flowers. He was generous with the fruits and vegetables of his labour. He was also an avid miniature car collector and he proudly displayed them for his wife to "lovingly" dust. He will be missed.'
