Ernestine Delores Stith passed away peacefully on June 25, 2026, at the age of 91. Born in Culpeper, Virginia, Ernestine was the beloved daughter of the late Bertha I. and Ernest E. Blick Sr. She lived a life rooted in faith, family, and service to others. For more than 20 years, Ernestine faithfully served as the secretary of Linthicum Baptist Church, where she was also a longtime active member and a devoted member of the church choir.

Ernestine was a gifted seamstress whose talent and creativity were reflected in everything she made. She found great joy in boating and crabbing, spending time on the water, and vacationing in Hilton Head, South Carolina, where she created many cherished memories with family and friends. Above all else, Ernestine was a loving and devoted mother whose greatest happiness came from spending time with her family.
