Ernie Hill was a founding member of the TEARS family and a friend to homeless animals who helped grow TEARS to what we are today.  Ernie left this world in December 2014.  With his passing, he has left a huge hole not just within our group, but in the lives of so many friends and family who knew him.

Ernie’s Walk was created to keep Ernie’s spirit alive within TEARS!  It is our hope that his legacy will live on through this yearly event by helping the homeless animals Ernie cared so much about.  Whether you have a cat, a dog or neither, we hope that you will join us for this special day celebrating life.  We can only wish to be so lucky to have made such an impact on this earth when it’s our time.  Thank you for joining us!
