From Diana Patton, DTM
I will never forget all the road trips we made over the years that included Ernestina along with David Martin, Diana Pittman and Judy Perez. Ernestina has so much energy. We had lots of laughs along the way. She was an amazing woman and Toastmaster. I will miss her.
From Donna Fossmeyer, DTM
Ernestina joined Toastmasters in April 2000. I got to know her well as we worked together on many District 25 Conferences and while she served at an Area Governor. Her nickname became Tina Toastmaster. She would serve the District and her clubs with everything she had. She had a great sense of humor, and her laugh were contagious. Toward the end of COVID she joined Plus-Two Toastmasters, a hybrid club, as she could no longer drive at night. Ernestina was always enthusiastic to help in any role, at meetings or at contests. Ernestina will be greatly missed by her Plus-Two Toastmasters Club and District 25.
