Ernestine grew up in St. Louis, MO and was educated in the St. Louis Public School District. Ernestine began working at an early age as a Nanny, this is where her love for children grew. She then became the school cook for University City School District where no child went hungry and every child had an honorary grandmother. She became ill and had to retire from U-City being remembered as the best lunch grandmother ever!

Ernestine loved to cook, clean, shop, have a good time and love on her children and grandchildren. She had an unbreakable bond with her siblings, nieces, nephews and mostly anyone she encountered. Ernestine opened her kitchen to everyone, and no one ever had any complaints about her one-of-a-kind cooking.
