Lyons

Ernest C. Humbert, passed away Wednesday, January 23, 2019. 

Born September 11, 1937 in Newark, son to the late Ernest A.C. and Beryl Thomas Humbert.  He graduated from Lyons High School, attended College of the Arts and Sciences at Cornell University from which he in 1959 earned an A.B. Degree in History.  At Cornell he was a member of the National Social Fraternity Alpha Tau Omega and worked on the staffs of the University Year Book and the Willard Straight Student Union.  He then attended the College of Law at Ohio State University from which he earned a J. D. Law Degree in January of 1962, completing an accelerated study program.  Following this he passed the State of Ohio Bar exam and the State of New York Bar exam.  For 10 years he was formerly involved in the general practice of law in the Village of Lyons, in the space he rented that was formerly the Medical Office of James Arseneau, MD, now deceased.  Following the sale of the Arseneau residence by Mrs. Glena W. Arseneau, Ernest was hired for the position of Chief Surrogate Clerk of Seneca County at the Seneca County Courthouse in Waterloo, for the next 20 years until his retirement.  

While at Ohio State University Mr. Humbert was fortunate to continue to be involved in the Ohio State University Chapter of the National Social Alpha Tau Mega Fraternity, which has many chapters at colleges and universities throughout the United States and has enjoyed his lifetime association with this fraternity.

In later years Mr. Humbert has been fortunate with pleasurable family relationships, including his Aunt Florence Anderson of Lyons, Uncle Charles Humbert of Florida, sister and brothers of his father and happy association with many cousins in the maternal and paternal sides of his family.

Burial will be with his parents at South Lyons Cemetery, Lyons, NY.
