Ernest Plasencia, 87, of Dewey, died Saturday in Bartlesville.
Ernest was born and raised in California, the son of Jesus and Eduarda (Rochin)
Plasencia on February 14, 1930, in Redlands. Ernest had a strong work
ethic and oftentimes had more than one job. While working in a cannery
he met the love of his life Grace Ann Nichols, a Bartlesville girl who
moved out to California to live with her aunt and was working in the
same cannery as Ernest. They were united in marriage on April 28, 1960,
in San Jose, CA. Ernest was thrifty and often rode his bike to work or
walked. Their four children were born in California. Ernest worked at
Paul Masson Winery for 15 years . The family moved to a farm in
Cherryvale, KS, that came with two cows, three calves and one
goodhearted dog. He found work at Greggs cabinet company for awhile,
then he worked at Cherryvale High school for a time. He later found work
at Charloma Fiberglass and worked there until retiring in 1990. A few
years later, in 1994, Ernest and Grace moved to Dewey to be close to
Grace’s family.
Ernest was a musician and songwriter who copyrighted one of his songs.
Two of his favorite songs he wrote were “Don’t Go” and “Nag Nag Nag”. He
loved singing, playing guitar, exercising and weightlifting. He liked to
garden and grow his own food. He enjoyed working around the house and
especially loved to decorate the outside of the house for Christmas.
Ernest preferred the simple life and often commented he was from the old
school.
