    For those of you missing earnest recently, his family posted this status to his Facebook page on 10/27/2011.

    "Our much loved father/Grandfather Ernest John Langmaid passed away unexpectedly and peacefully in his sleep sometime last night. He was in his own bed, at home with 5 of his grandchildren and his daughter Yvette. Sons Gavin and Hugo and ex-wife Irene arrived first thing, along with partners Lisa and Sarah, and grandson Nicholas on his way. Family have all pulled together at this time and wish to notify as many of Dad's mates and extended family as possible."

    I know that he was a much loved presence here on HubPages, as well as a prolific and successful Hubber.  Ernest and I rarely agreed on anything to do with religion, but we disagreed with love and a great deal of good feeling, and we always agreed that love and good feeling were what mattered most!

    He was a good man and will be greatly missed.

      Someone brought the LIMERICKS LIMERICKS LIMERICKS forum back up from 2 years ago.  I don't know if it was intentional or not but there is a limerick from Earnest in there and he says "It reminded me that I'm not dead."  It's about number 11-12 down in the posts.

      Gosh how shocking!! I had many a conversation with him. What a snap into reality from this virtual world we inhabit. I didn't agree with him on much, but there was a sweetness there and I felt I knew him a little. How strange Hubpages will be without him. How sad. But I'm glad it was a peaceful death,

      There was a thread a couple of years ago on how we'd know if a favorite hubber passed away.  The general consensus was a hope that the family would notify another hubber close to the deceased who could then post a notice to HP.  That we had to learn of Earnest's demise so long after the fact should be a reminder to those of us who live mainly online to leave instructions for non-cyber family members on how to make such notifications.   

      That said, I'm still in shock that a hubber as beloved as Earnest...such a bright spot in these pages...could really be gone.  I'd been wondering why he hadn't been around lately, but only thought illness or family responsibilities was keeping him away.  I never considered death could be the reason.  He WILL be sorely missed.  My heart goes out to his family for their loss.

      I always felt close to Earnest because he was a fellow Aussie, an all around good guy and I knew his part of Australia well.  I knew he'd had cancer (and had the impression it was still lurking) so perhaps this shouldn't come as a shock, but it is. 

      He will be missed, but at least he made the most of life while he had it.

    I can't believe this. Earnest was one of the reasons I stayed here when I got discouraged and wanted to quit. I always joked with him that I would move to Australia and marry him one day! I know that he didn't believe in heaven, but I do and know he's surrounded by a field of classic cars he can work on at his leisure and tons of kids because he loved them so much. Now I think I need to go have a little cry.

    I only hope he has now found out that he was wrong and there was somewhere good to go after this plane of existence (assuming there is).

    Yeah, it's really not right not to respect someone's beliefs and wishes about their death.  My father specifically said he wanted no religion involved with his death, but a jackass friend just had to stand up and make a speech that my father would have hated.  That was completely inconsiderate and it made me angry,  I wouldn't go to that guys funeral and stand up to remind everyone that he was a deluded fool.

    Maybe Earnest wouldn't care, but those with religious agendas should really take them somewhere else,

      She stuffed them down her trousers stood up and said very politely. "Granpa may I be excused from the table?"

      then went to the bathroom and emptied the vegies in the bin while pretending to need the toilet."

      Me too, I am not a Bible follower and hate being preached at, but I do believe in something 'after' this life. I do have reasons for this, but again I won't get into it here. The one thing I do believe, is that whether we believe in 'something after' or we adamantly don't believe, no-one knows for sure until they die. I feel like you, I want him to pop into this conversation too, (or come visit you or me, or anyone here for that matter).

        I know you can't help it, but  really try to think about this:

        Suppose I came into a gathering where your friends were remembering you and someone said "She's in a better place" and I responded "What, rotting in the ground?"


        I wouldn't do that.  That would be terribly rude and worse.  I'd be angry if anyone did that,  It's a time where you respect people's lives.

        Why can religious people never understand that they are being rude when they come into an atheists remembrance and blabber about religion?  When?

        Oh, never mind.  I'll miss him.  Funny, he's the first on-line friend who has died - at least that I know of.

      He did talk about some of his serious illnesses, and I'm stunned from this very sad news.  I was hoping to meet up with him in Canada 

      Crusty on the outside and soft on the inside. For me he held the record for belly laughs on the hub. No matter what kind of person you are or what kind of group you belong to. So many people could not help themselves to like him or to love him.

      Proud to have known Earnest in the very short time of conversation together

      Goodbye buddy
