Vale Ernie Wenske ( WWT Stalwart )

Postby Booney » Mon Jun 29, 2020 9:45 am

Some very sad news that Eagles member and club stalwart Ernie Wenske passed away today at age 86. Ernie was well known by many over the years at Oval Ave for fanatically following his beloved Peckers/WWT Eagles and Woodville Cricket Club. His love and loyal support for both his football and cricket clubs was legendary and he will be sadly missed. Fly high on the wings of an Eagle Ernie.
PAFC. Forever.

I think there'd be few SANFL followers who didn't know Ernie or admire his passion for his football club. He was a very friendly bloke, especially if you were an Eagles supporter!

I sometimes used to see him in the Woodville area during the week - often wearing Eagles or WDCC colours.

Folks like Ernie are the heart and soul of local footy clubs. I'm sure he will be missed by many.
