Ernesto A. De La Cerda

He worked 35 years for his own body repair shop. He retired from his body repair shop and then he became a pastor for The Church of God of Prophecy where he was a lifelong member. Ernesto loved to sing and enjoyed visiting family for the holidays, and never said no to a second serving of any meal.

Ernesto is preceded in death by his parents; and his siblings: Porfirio, Nereida, Rodolfo, Rene, Graciela, Rolando and son, Jimmy De La Cerda.

He is survived by his wife Delia De La Cerda; his children, Emilio E De La Cerda (Maricela), Dee Barrows, George De La Cerda (Hilda), Martha R. Mitchner (Steve) and Chris Trevino (Joe); 17 grandchildren, 23 great-grandchildren, 1 great-great-grandchild and extended family, Laura G. De La Cerda.

He was a loving husband, father, son and brother. He will be dearly missed.
