There are no words to express this phase of life you are traveling thru. Erich was such a wonderful person. He is loved and missed and can never be replaced. We have to trust that God has a really big job for him. I'm sure it's to help prepare, a place for all of us left behind. You are always in my prayers. I love you all and God is in control. Charis

Erich,
You were my brother,my mentor, and my hero growing up. I will always remember the things you tought me in life, and the memories that you left behind..and I promise to make you proud of me...I Love You!

I can't say he is at a better place because his better is here with his wife and children. I can say that who he is with will take good care...

Erich was also the capitan of the Varsity football team. He was my very first high school prom...

Edie,
I was so sorry to hear about the loss of your son. Please know that my thoughts and prayers are with you and your family at this difficult time.

Heidi and family-
I am so sorry to hear of Erich's passing. I had the opportunity to meet you before you gave birth to Davis, while Erich was working at Del Norte. He was beaming with joy. I've known Erich since high school, he was a truely beautiful person. My prayers are with you.
