John,
I was sadden to hear of Erin's death today. We will miss her so much from our once a month lunch at El Charro! I have known Erin since we attended Alma School. This has been such a shock.

Erin's wit, humor, intelligence and grace will be greatly missed during our afternoon treadmill sessions at ACS. She was such a kind lady.
