Not sure what to say?

I just found out this guest book was here. After reading so many wonderful things, it hit me...We have all been blessed by having known Erik. He truly left this world with my respect, despite my lack of contact for many years. My condolences...

I am very saddened at the loss of Erik. I always knew he was one of the brightest guys I would ever come into contact with. His humor and wit were not to be matched. I hope, despite the circumstances, that Erik left many great memories for you, as he did me. Kirsten, family, and friends...you are in my prayers regularly.

I was very sad to hear about Erik's passing and would like to extend my deepest condolences to Kirsten and the rest of his family and friends. Although Mark and I never knew Erik well and haven't seen him since high school, we both remember him as a very funny, intelligent, and thoughtful person. Even back then, it was obvious that he had a way of touching people's lives with what appeared to be the greatest of ease. Our thoughts are with all of you during this difficult time.

Erik was an amazing person--he was caring, intelligent, and had such a humor to him. He will truly be missed. My prayers are with his family.

When I think back on my memories of Erik, all I can do is smile. He was the kind of person who opened your eyes to the funny yet deeper side of life. I will always remember the good times like Skittle soccer, dancing, the geometric fish pond at McDonald's and long talks at McDuffy's. He was the definition of a good friend. My deepest sympathies go out to his family and friends. He will be missed.

I will always remember my beloved friend that I met at Myers, whose quick-witted humor could always make me laugh. Erik had that unique ability to provoke my thoughts to a deeper level. He will be greatly missed by all of us who loved him. May God be with his family and friends so that they may find peace in the memories of such an amazing person.

My sweet Erik, I can't believe you are gone. For the past 13 years, we have shared a very close and most unique relationship. You always knew what I was thinking before I uttered a single word. You finished my sentences and completed my thoughts. I have never had so much fun or laughed so hard with anyone as I did with you. My life feels totally empty without you in it. But you would not want us to be sad; you would want us to be happy that you are at peace now. I know that wherever you are,...

I will remember Erik's wonderful sense of humor, his jokes, gestures, and comic expressions, his remark of "you chucklehead!" when someone dropped a pun on him. I'll remember talking sports and politics and law with him over the phone, and his willingness to consider other opinions while sticking to his principles. I'll remember, back in the day, playing cards with him for hours on end, through the night until daybreak. Above all, I'll remember that Erik was a good man. He always tried to...

Dear Erik,

You will be missed dearly, friend. Webster's defines the word "friend" as "a person whom one knows, likes, and trusts". I knew you well for the past 20 years, I loved you dearly and through it all, I, like everyone else who knew you, always trusted you. You were a great friend in every sense of the word. We pray that you are at peace. We pray for strength for your family and that God eases their pain in this trying time. We pray that we will remember the best things...
