It is with deeply saddened hearts that the family announces the passing of Ernie Unsworth on Friday, January 19, 2024 at the age of 56. Beloved husband of Michelle of 28 years. He was her rock, best friend, and will be eternally missed. Loving father of Michael (Alexa) and Solange. Cherished Papa of his pride and joy Elijah. Remembered by several friends. Predeceased by his father Milton Unsworth and his brother Ed Unsworth. Ern will be deeply missed by all those who knew and loved him. Ernie was a true redneck through and through. Known for his love of hunting and fishing, he found solace at Stokes Bay, his beloved slice of heaven. Ern, an avid houndsman, left behind a legacy of laughter, family bonds, especially with his children Michael and Solange and grandson Elijah, and the memories of countless days spent with his beloved hounds and hunting buddies. He will be dearly missed. In honour of his long winded and never ending stories, we ask you never stop telling the crazy adventures of Ernie. As long as his stories are being told, his spirit will continue to live on. The deer and coyote all whisper amongst themselves and the trees will rustle his name, for his soul was in the bush, and there is where he’ll be. Cremation has taken place. Sympathy may be expressed through donations to the Ontario Federation of Anglers and Hunters or Jump Start (cheques only at the funeral home please). Arrangements entrusted to Smith Funeral Home, 1576 London Line, Sarnia.
