Joseph E. Erickson

My memories of Joe are of his singing and speaking in our Conrad Mission Church. He was always a great inspiration to me for singing in the choir, which he so aptly directed ....the many Cantatas he directed that I sang in were awesome, especially the Missionary Cantatas one could tell he really had his heart in missions. Joe was a blessing to everyone in his music ministry. ~ Barb Fladstol

My memories of Uncle Joe have been flooding my mind the last few days--farming, singing, Aunt Dorothy, Lorna, Dennis and Lynn, trips to Glacier Park--all wonderful memories. I'm so thankful to God that Uncle Joe was a vital part of my childhood.

My memories of time spent on the farm and the "hard working" Joe, are some of the best. He always had time to make sure the kids had something fun to do. His Christian testimony in word and song were always at the tip of his tongue. Truely a Godly man! He is reaping the reward promised to him now.

We want to take this opportuniy to express our sympathy to the family of Joe Erickson on the passing of your father and grandfather. "Uncle Joe" used his God-given singing talent for many years. Listening to him sing a solo or with Pastor Norheim was always the highlight of the Lutheran Gospel Hour. Blessed be his memory.
