Obituary of Ernest HUDSON

Ernest G. Hudson passed gently from this earth on January 12, 2008 after a hard fought battle against cancer. He was born in St. Paul, Minnesota on April 18, 1949. He grew up in San Diego, CA. and worked for Rohr Industries in Chula Vista and Riverside, CA. He retired from Rohr after 30 years service.In Ernie's eyes his life began when he met his wife, Tena, and they married on March 24, 1979. He loved Lake Havasu and they made the trip from CA; every weekend and holiday until their retirement. Upon retiring, they built their retirement home in Lake Havasu. Ernie's passion of life included the lake, boats, motorcycles (all his toys) and anything out of doors. He loved spending quality time with his friends and family surrounded by the things he treasured. He was eager to keep up with today's ever changing technology and he enjoyed sharing that knowledge with others.Ernie is survived by his wife, Tena K.
