Not sure what to say?

John,
I'm sorry to hear the news of your Father's passing. He was a very kind and generous man. My thoughts and prayers are with you and your family at this time.

Rest In Peace. Sending our condolences to the Erickson family at this time of loss. Phil and Laura Rainier

I am so sorry to hear about John’s passing. My sympathy to all the families and friends of John. John was a Christian in every sense of the word. God Bless you Mr. Erickson.

John was a very kind person. He was so welcoming when we built our house and moved in. On Valentine’s Day my girls would bake heart cookies and leave them in his mailbox. Our condolences to the family.

To the total Erickson family and Harmons. So sorry for your loss. When I worked for Bruce I got to know all of you and John was so friendly and enjoyed knowing you all. Prayers and Hugs

What a great tribute to a wonderful and gentle, good man; he will be missed by so many. Our prayers are with you and all the family for comfort at this time. So wish we could have had that last visit with him in July.

So sorry for your loss. We always enjoyed visiting with your Dad. We hope all the wonderful memories help you through this time. Prayers to all of you.

Prayers and thoughts to the family

So very sorry to read of John's death. He had a wonderful life & a wonderful partner in Gloria. I remember him coming to the house the night of her funeral with a plate she had painted with wild violets; my favorite. He made tremendous contributions to the church & the community.
