Loving father of Sandra (Lorin), Scott (Maribel) and Warren (Beverly).  Cherished grandfather of Katie, Scarlett (AKA Page), Justin, Jaira, Connor, Hannah and Chloe. Caring brother of Graham (Nancy).  Ernest is predeceased by his parents George and Muriel Mills and his dear sister Diana. Ernie was an active family guy that would cherish his moment with them. In his spare time, he was a big sports fan and loved to play golf, curling and let’s not forget his favorite sport to watch on tv -boxing.  Ernest also had a big spot in his heart for his kids' dogs.  In 1989 Ernest achieved a great milestone in his life by opening and founding Wamco Waterworks that he ran for many years.
