Ernesto was born on April 28, 1996, in Montrose, Colorado, to Ernesto, Sr. and Kathy (Ulibarri) Robles. He spent his childhood there, and graduated from Montrose High School. Through a program at Colorado Mesa University, Ernesto earned college credits and graduated from CU Boulder with a Bachelor of Science degree in Mechanical Engineering.

Ernesto was the light of our lives. He strived to be the best man he could be. He was just that…the best! As soon as he walked into the room you could feel his energy. His laugh was contagious. Ernesto was so intelligent. His determination and strife got him through college. He was the rock that held the world together. Ernesto loved to listen to music, travel, and spend quality time with his loved ones. He spread love and life throughout everything he did. Ernesto will be utterly missed by all.
