ERNIE CHAMBERLAIN, 82, died January 22, 2003 at Abington Memorial Hospital, Montgomery County. Born June 9, 1920 in Mainesburg, she was the daughter of Ernest and Agnes (Connelly) Chamberlain. She went to work near Waverly, NY, as a physical education teacher after graduating from college in 1942. In 1946 she began working in Evansville, IL for the YMCA. Later she joined the Red Cross near the end of the Korean War and was stationed in Japan and Korea. She was an avid golfer, especially in her younger days. She met and befriended the influential Park family in Korea when invited to play on their private course with their daughter. In 1955 she returned to America by freighter through the Suez Canal and stopped in France where she met a hometown friend, Joyce Gilbert. They spent six weeks traveling through Europe. Joyce and her husband Carlton were favorite traveling companions of Ernie. In 1989 they went on a three-week photographic safari in Kenya. Once back in the United States she worked for Walter Reed Army Hospital in Washington, DC in 1955. She arranged entertainment for groups of wounded soldiers, many of which were amputees, to special parties and event in Washington's highest political and social circles, including parties in Mrs. McLean's home where she had the opportunity to wear the Hope diamond, which was then owned by Mrs. McLean. She joined Norristown State Hospital in 1957 to create and head the newly formed volunteer services department from which position she retired after 25 years. For those who knew Ernie well, she was admirably suited to this position because she could convince almost anyone to volunteer for almost anything. In 1974 Ernestine founded the Forteniters Club, Inc. a social club for ex-mental patients, which meets every Thursday, and with the help of local churches and civic groups, the club has a nice dinner and usually entertainment as well. She loved to travel, some of her favorite spots included the Island of Nevis in the West Indies, Kenya, Portugal and Ireland. Her favorite place was undoubtedly the Cottage on Lake Juanita and with Island of Nevis running a close second. She was the world's best "Welcome Wagon" lady for many years and helped many new families feel welcome in the Ambler area. She also made many lifelong friends of the folks she "welcomed waggoned." Ms. Chamberlain was an active member and volunteer for many years in "Plant Ambler's" a group who plants and cares for flowers in Ambler Borough. She was also a regular student at Temple University's Horticulture School where she met and made many friends. She excelled at bringing people and organizations together for their mutual benefit. "Plant Ambler" benefited greatly from her association with temple's Horticulture School and many seedlings, which would have been discarded, graced the flower boxes and barrels of Plant Ambler sites each years. Surviving are her sister Frances Anderson, Canton; nephews Eric Anderson, Canton; Mike Cleveland, Sciota, PA; many friends and her cat, "Sweetie". "Sweetie" has a good home with the Yin family of Ambler with four lovely girls to look after her and love her. Funeral services were held January 26 in Ambler, PA, where she lived since 1957. A memorial service will be held at the Mainesburg Church, 1 p.m., April 26. Refreshments will be served after the service.

As a caddy on the golf course, he tried to be a good one, and he was. In his training in the aviation he showed an interest and knowledge that came from studying to do the job well. He was thoughtful of others and made friends easily and in many ways showed himself a young man that it seems hard to lose.
