My sweet memories of this bigger than life sweet man with his huge gift of just knowing what to share a small talk a picture he just took and posted it on the wall in Bridgeview. A huge smile and giggle from this bigger than life man who made you feel special. He was a special friend to my Dad the played poker together at Bridgeview.

We miss Ernie greatly. From his all-encompassing smile with a twinkle in his eye, to his unbridled joy of living lift to it's fullest, Ernie lifted the spirits of all around him. Everyone felt special in his presence. It was heartwarming to see him play cards with Michael and Ethan. We recall his love of photography during our nature walks while in Florida, as well as his seemingly endless supply of bird seed to feed the birds in the nearby parking lot. And that child-like enthusiastic smile and excitement when the birds came to eat the bird seed. He loved life!!!
All our friends who ever met Ernie miss him. All our friends who have enjoyed his joke emails miss him. Now his email jokes are frozen in time on our computers as a memorial to his sense of humor and joy of living.
We are grateful to have known and loved a mensch, Ernie Tischler.
May his memory be a blessing always.
Fern, Victor, Michael and Ethan
Somehow hearing of Ernie's passing at age 94 was still a punch in the gut. He was the last of my grandfather's cousins living and the one I was closest to. As a kid at family events or at kiddish on Shabbas morning, I always sought him out so he could steal my nose and tell dad jokes and play that goofy game where he would ask me to pull on his ears to control the direction of his tongue sticking out. At my wedding, he took dozens of photos and sent me digital copies. They are still some of my favorite photos I have. I will sure miss him.
My grandfather, Jim Schwartz, was an only child, and Ernie his only cousin who played a role in my life. I loved seeing Ernie at Rodeph Sholom throughout my childhood and into adulthood. Ernie and my grandfather shared a boundless love of children and Ernie express that love with jokes and tricks, always drawing a smile out of any children he came across. I always found my interactions with Ernie as a delight, and I will hold dear those memories of my cheery, bright, warm cousin. יהי זכרו ברוך
Ernie became a dear friend for many years and we first met as congregants at Congregation Rodeph Sholom in Connecticut. Ernie enjoyed life to the fullest. We would meet every Sunday morning at the Jewish Senior Service Home, for breakfast. as part of the weekly Bagel Club, with about 15 old Jews eating and kibitzing for two hours.
He liked what I did for AARP and became one of my Safe Driving Instructors, teaching seniors how to be safer drivers.. He instructed both in Connecticut in the spring and summer and in Florida in the fall and winter.
The one thing that I wall miss most about him was that every night I would receive THREE emails from him, jokes, cartoons and photos. He was always ready for a good joke and laugh.
My heart and soul goes out to his wife, children, grand-children and great grand-children.
Ernie, may to rest in peace.
