Condolence: My sympathies to the family, I went Prospect Valley High School with Ernie, my Freshman & part of my Junior years (long story). We had a lot of fun together, both too ornery to pay attention, but it was still fun I remember to this day. We hadn't spoken in years, and the last time we did, I was a bit sauced, a rare thing then, and not in well over 2 decades, but it was still good to talk to an old friend. Anyway folks, take care of family & friends, they're lifetime achievements, no matter what! 😎

Best regards,

Condolence: I am saddened by the loss of such a great man. Coach meant the world to me growing up. I have never met a man who could be spit in your face mad and by the end of the lecture be dancing and twirling in a circle. I am sure I made a few more of those hairs fall out. He always supported us and always had our backs. I always cherished our talks. I loved his speeches. I admired his intensity. I can only hope I can manage to be half of the man he was. Hope to see you in the company of angels Coach. Love you.

Condolence: Cathy,

Our condolences to you and the family from our family. I am sorry I was unable to attend the service, my plan was to come. But want you to know you are in our prayers and know Ernie is now in a better place!!! Love you ! Rodney

Condolence: So saddened by the news of Mr. Reichert's passing. He was a larger than life figure, and whether or not you had him as a teacher, you knew and appreciated all he did. He will definitely be missed. RIP

Condolence: I am so sorry to hear of "Mr. Reichert's" passing - he was a wonderful teacher - I was from the class of '75 - a slice of time none of us will get back - and won't forget and he was a perfect compliment to that time when Niwot High School was just beginning. You cannot ever forget a great teacher! You and your family are in my thoughts and prayers.

Condolence: Cathy, Even though I do not fully understand what you are feeling or your immense grief at this moment of time, but I pray the Lord will strengthen you, console you, and hold you tenderly in His loving arms. God Bless all of you. Betty

Condolence: God bless you Mr. Reichert and the whole Reichert family. I remember looking forward to my psychology class each and every time. You were always one of my favorite teachers. Mr. Reichert was Mr. Niwot if ever there was such a thing.

Condolence: It was an honor and privilege to be a departmental colleague of Ernie's. for 20 years. So many good things to say about Ernie. He was always pleasant. loved teaching and was an advocate for the students he mentored and coached. He leaves the world a much better place because of his presence. My sympathy to his family. We'll miss him, but cherish the memories he left us.

Condolence: Niwot High School had no better fan and promoter than Ernie. His wonderful energy and sense of humor bode well as he guided students in class, student government, and sports. I am sure he had green in his veins!

Condolence: Ernie was a great mentor for the rest of us as teachers at Niwot HS. His love for the students and faculty and his enthusiasm for life served as a great model. Our thoughts and prayers are with the family.
