Erik G. Johanson

Dear Erik,

On June 8, 2017, I wrote you an email entitled, "Farewell." It simply said:
"The creative light on Brookdale's campus will be much less bright without you here. Wishing you both a joyful retirement!"

Your Earthly light may have been extinguished, but your spirit will brilliantly burn for eternity.

Sandy, my deepest condolences to you. I can't fathom the depth of your loss. My heart is heavy for you and my prayers are with you.

Erik, The world is a grayer world since you have left us I see you in a Viking ship gently drifting home and leaving us behind to feel a little more lost.I ( and I speak for my husband George also),are so lucky to have called you friend, and we have so many fond and fun memories shared with you and Sandy . With love,for both you and Sandy.Kathy

I am terribly sad to hear about Eric. Always a joy to talk to..and a keeper of the faith in the house he grew up in. I always think of him when I'm in my old town of New Shrewsbury and pass his house.. as I have for many many years. I know how terrible Pulm. Fibrosis is. My father had it before he passed. Long live Eric's spirit. Patricia Dumas
