Erik M. Roemer

Erik,
Lianna made a beautiful bride, didn't she? I know you were there, I could feel your presence. Johnny will take good care of her. The holidays are upon us and my heart is so heavy. Your beautiful smile will be missed but your spirit is with me always. I want you to know that your friends keep in touch with me and make sure I'm alright. I know why you loved them so much. I'll see you in the morning like I do every day. I love you from the earth to the sun and back again. Always and...

Erik,
For the past 5 years you have been not only my boyfriend, but my best friend. We have shared so many wonderful times together, that i will hold in my heart forever. You were always there for me..in both good times and bad. Even though you are not physically here with me, i know you will be by my side for the rest of my life. (i now have one of the BEST angels to watch over me!) You were such an important part of my life and nothing we shared will ever be forgotten. You will forever...

Erik! You've always been a close friend to me and my whole family. I know that I didn't get to come see you when times got bad, but I know that you knew I wanted to. I can still remember all the times with you. When you fixed my bike for me, when you hung out with me at the pool and when you came over my house to play with Nick, Matt and Greg. I really will miss you so much, you have no idea. I believe that everything happens for a reason, but I can't come to figure out why this happened. I...

Dearest Erik,
I find my days always having you by my side. In my own thoughts I speak to you. I carry you in my heart and think of all the goodness you have brought to everyone that knew you. Your smile will always be remember and treasured. When I visit you I wonder, why God needs you more than we do. I know that you have many more roads to travel and only good things will come. I promise to take care of your mom and Lianna. You were such an amazing friend to all that knew you. I...

Erik,
Tried to stop by you but Amanda was there so I didn't intrude. Later, some things got me really upset. I took a drive by and you were alone, so I stopped to visit. Now here's the thing, had a chair in the car so I figured I be lazy and really hang out. So I opened the chair, sat and started to talk to you. When I had finished my "hello," I felt something hit my foot. Well, a bird had "dropped" in, too. I just laughed and looked up. You are such a wiseguy, heck of a way to say...

I’ve just received the email and opened it July 28th. The fondest of family memories include Erik and Liana. Words can not express the depth of grief at his passing. In every prayer, we ask God to bless you with courage to bear the sorrow that now fills your heart. May the Lord comfort you giving you peace through this difficult passage of time. Know that Erik’s place has been prepared and he is without pain in a new and different form. May the Love of the Father Be with you, to Bless you...

Hans, Adele, Lianna and family,

I am so sorry to hear of Erik's passing. He was a great kid, and was so very, very fortunate to have a family as loving as you. Your grief is shared by all who knew him.

Erik you put up the bravest fight anyone could witness. You have made me so proud. Your passing has left me with a heavy heart yet all the celebration that still goes on is a testimony to who you are and will always be. I love you from the earth to the sun and back again. Forever and always,

Mom
