Ernie was my Uncle. Growing up in Detroit was marvelous back in the 1930’s through the 1950’s. All because of Uncle Ernie. What a guy. Thanks for having him on your program. With Compliments, Charles Winstanley, CEO Winstanley Broadcasting,Inc.

Kinda brings a tear to the eye. Those “thrilling days of yesteryear” are long behind us. I was thrilled to do a small number of jobs with Ernie and Paul on some 1973 Dodge commercials as the radio voice of the Lone Ranger. Those were some of “my moments in the sun.” It was some of my greatest moments working with some of the original stars of the Lone Ranger program.
