Anonymous Warrior

Samuel and Jake Beichner are two brothers who used to wrestle for my pops. Recently, Sam started an apparel company called Anonymous Warrior, and as part of their marketing, they put out short videos about people’s unsung heroes. Jake put out this short video to honor my father:

Here’s the intro blurb for the video:

Coach Ernst was Jake’s high school wrestling coach, a man in his mid-70s who had already coached championship teams and didn’t have to give anything else. But he showed up anyway. Every single day. When he was diagnosed with cancer, he came into the weight room and benched 225 with the rest of them. When Parkinson’s and Alzheimer’s took hold years later, he was still trying to do push-ups in the care facility.

It’s a special thing to see your father honored in this way. Thanks, Jake and Sam!
