Erica Dumey Obituary

Dumey, Erica Christine Kiki now face-to-face with her Lord and Savior, Jesus Christ! Beloved and cherished daughter of David A. and Deborah R. Dumey; precious and fun-loving sister of Kara (Chad) Mihalick, Bryan, Leah, and Hannah; treasured granddaughter of Gilbert L. (the late Dortha) and Cindy Hoch; dear niece, friend, neighbor, and co-worker; special friend of Andrea, Mary, Cheryl, Amanda, and Allison. Erica never met a stranger and lit up the room simply by smiling; she charmed everyone she met. She spoke truth with love, and lived on the edge of whatever she pursued, but mostly, we remember her for bringing unprecedented joy into our lives. Her What's up, Baby? is forever ingrained in our hearts. Erica graduated summa cum laude from Oklahoma Baptist University in 2009 with a Bachelor of Science degree in Secondary Spanish Education. She pursued her passion of hairstyling at LaPlante Hairstyling and Barbering in 2010-11. Her talent was quickly recognized and clients asked for her by name. She was active in her church, The Journey, and found many loving friends there. If desired, donations in Erica's memory may be made to: Locks of Love, the American Red Cross, the Mental Health Association, The Journey Church, the charity of your choice or simply give flowers to someone you care about, a practice Erica loved. Erica will be missed every single day, but it is with absolute assurance that we know we shall see her again and spend Eternity with her. Services: Funeral service at Ballwin Baptist Church, 15101 Manchester Road, Saturday, April 2, 2011 at 11:00 a.m. Interment St. Lucas Cemetery. Visitation at the SCHRADER Funeral Home and Crematory, 14960 Manchester Road at Holloway, Ballwin, Friday, April 1, 2011 from 2-8 p.m. Friends may sign the family's on-line guestbook at Schrader.com

Erica, your LaPlante family misses you so much. We miss those stupid boots that you used to wear and NEVER pick up your feet when you walked! The clients still ask about you all the time. You were a wonderful student to have with us. You will be missed.
