Not sure what to say?

I have fond memories of Erwin Pesek. My grandma, Mary Becvar (nee Pesek)would take my Becvar cousins and me to the coliseum to see him in bicycle races. We always enjoyed them. We also would visit with Erwin when he came to visit Grandma. My sympathy
to the family.

I met Erwin 2 or 3 times in my life; once when we purchased a Schwinn bike and picked it up from him at the plant in 1967, other times just in passing while with my father. My father always spoke glowingly about Erwin's accomplishments and introduced him as "my cousin Erwin the 6 day bike rider". My dad, Tom Cerkez the drugist on 26th St., passed away in 2006. May your memories help to ease the pain of your loss.

Our memories of Uncle Erv will stay in our hearts forever,he was a very special person. A loving Brother & Uncle to many.
God's peace!!

May your memories of the wonderful times you shared with your loved one comfort you and your family, today and always.

The United States has lost another WWII hero. May he be at perfect peace.

Offering our deepest condolences during this difficult time.
