Not sure what to say?

I went to Library school with Erica and know that she was a really bright, funny, caring and all-round special person. My heart goes out to North and Rowan. May she find rest and relief from suffering.

Even though I never had the chance to know Erica, my heart goes out to her family, and my dear friend, Patricia, who has endured so much. May she be given the unyielding strength to go on and live with what she has, and know that Eica would want no less for her, and know that her place here is so appreciated to all that know her. May you all go on knowing full well you are loved.

I'm so saddened to know that Erica has gone on, but glad that we had these ten years to keep her with us in the world. We live on in the memories that we make and the lives we affect. Erica lives vibrantly within her friends' hearts.

Thinking of you, North and Rowan.

I had not seen Erica in years but she still influences me -- from how I interact with and care for my cats to phrases I use and the way I think about things. The phrase "it is hard to know about things," yes! I remember this too. She was a good friend to me and I cherish the time I had with her and my memories of our days at Miami.

When Erica spoke in Faculty Senate...we all listened to her kind soul as she always had a measured comment. Lovely and she will be missed by us all. Barb Hipsman, Kent, Ohio

Erica was indeed a lovely person. She was someone you could laugh or cry with and know that either emotion was ok with her. It's never that our loved ones have gone before us, it's that they have left us behind. I am sure that Erica is dancing on clouds with angels as she watches over her family. Janie- KSU Chem/Biochem

Although we only met Erica once, we are so sad to learn about her passing.She was a gentle, and warm, and strikingly bright woman. Lew and Lily Fried

I know you have many good memories. She was such a sweet and good person. RIP Erica.
