Elizabeth Euphemia Moore Erickson

Mrs. Erickson was a gracious person and it was always a pleasure to see her when visiting the Erickson home. It was a house filled with mystery and fun and purple.

As one of several care takers of Mrs. Erickson, I feel blessed to have been introduced to this special family. If I hadn't been offered this fine experience to serve such a grand lady, I would have missed knowing of this "life well lived". I send my warmest condolences to the family, knowing that she will be sorely missed with many fine memories.

For Kristi, Roxann and Robert... A poem I wrote on the passing my my parents:

IT IS NOT EASY BEING THERE
It is not easy being there
in rooms holding memories
Of days dear,
but gone.

It is not easy being there
mining closets and drawers,
Touching fabrics, papers;
the smell of velum.

Photographs of dad and mom
looking younger than you are now,
or souvenirs of summer romps,
or prom flowers pressed in books:
They take your heart - if...

When I met Mrs. Elizabeth Erickson in Phoenix, in December 1998, I felt affection, gratitude and I understood she was a woman really capable to Love.

Elizabeth must have been a very loving and caring person. She obviously imparted that to her children. Sorry for your loss but know she led a long and wonderful life.
