Mourners for the grandfather named Ernie who was a manager at the A-1 Self-Storage paid their respects with flowers and a note. Ernie was killed during an armed robbery yesterday morning at the place of business at 2648 15th Ave. W.
The note and flowers were from a couple who rented space at the facility. Later in the day, more flowers and notes were left near the establishment’s locked gate.
Several readers commented that Ernie was kind and friendly. One person said Ernie was his/her father, and thanked those who acknowledged him.
