I was just thinking about the the time Eric and were working / goofing around and I slipped on some grease and end up falling and bracing myself with the pizza oven door ended up getting the worst burn ... good times .
September 10, 2010
Eric - Every time I hear the kids playing outside I expect to see you leading the group. We all miss the energy you brought to our neighborhood and how great you were with all of the boys in the court. Your 6 month anniversary just passed and I still can't believe it. Your family is very strong,make sure that you keep looking down on them and helping them through this.
April 21, 2010
To my beautiful Son -- there will never be a day that I don't think of you and miss you -- 7 weeks tomorrow it will be since you left this world. I can only hope and pray that I will feel your presence again. Although I will never understand this tragic ending and how I always believed that I could protect you from anything if I tried hard enough, I will do my best to go on for you and for your sisters who miss you beyond belief. With all my love, Your Mom

John and Kolleen: I can't imagine what the loss of a child can feel like. I know it has been about 25 years or so; but my heart goes out to you and your family. Thank the Lord that you have your other children to comfort you in this very sad time. Losing people in my life has been very sad; but take one day at a time, and you will think of the happy times and that is all you will remember.

Kolleen, John and family,
Kolleen when we worked together over 10 years ago your children were so young and I enjoyed hearing you share your stories about them, you would light up. I met your daughters when they came into the office but I dont believe I ever met Eric though I remember you talking about him with great motherly pride. I am deeply saddened by your families loss and pray that you each find the strength to get through this tragedy.

To bring consolation to the Fischer Family:
"Love Lives On"
Those we love remain with us
For love itself lives on
And treasured memories never fade
Because a loved one’s gone.
Those we love can never be
More than a thought apart
For as long as there is memory
They will live on in our heart.

Dear Kolleen and Family:
I cannot even comprehend the depths of your sorrow. Dave and I want to convey our deepest sympathies. You are in our constant thoughts and prayers. May the little things that remind you of Eric keep him close to you as time goes by.
I keep this in my wallet, and I share it with you:
Do not stand at my grave and weep,
I am not there, I do not sleep.
I am in a thousand winds that blow,
I am the softly falling snow.
I am the gentle showers of rain,
I am the fields of ripening grain.
I am in the morning hush,
I am in the graceful rush
Of beautiful birds in circling flight,
I am the starshine of the night.
I am in the flowers that bloom,
I am in a quiet room.
I am in the birds that sing,
I am in each lovely thing.
Do not stand at my grave and cry,
I am not there. I do not die. --Anonymous

To my dearest family, some things I'd like to say...
but first of all, to let you know, that I arrived okay.
I'm writing this from heaven. Here I dwell with God above.
Here, there's no more tears of sadness; here is just eternal love.
Please do not be unhappy just because I'm out of sight.
Remember that I'm with you every morning, noon and night.
That day I had to leave you when my life on earth was through,
God picked me up and hugged me and He said, "I welcome you."
It's good to have you back again; you were missed while you were gone.
As for your dearest family, they'll be here later on.
I need you here badly; you're part of my plan.
There's so much that we have to do, to help our mortal man.
God gave me a list of things, that he wished for me to do.
And foremost on the list, was to watch and care for you.
And when you lie in bed at night, the day's chores put to flight.
God and I are closest to you....in the middle of the night.
When you think of my life on earth, and all those loving years
because you are only human, they are bound to bring you tears.
But do not be afraid to cry; it does relieve the pain.
Remember there would be no flowers, unless there was some rain.
I wish that I could tell you all that God has planned.
But if I were to tell you, you wouldn't understand.
But one thing is for certain, though my life on earth is o'er.
I'm closer to you now, than I ever was before.
There are many rocky roads ahead of you and many hills to climb;
but together we can do it by taking one day at a time.
It was always my philosophy and I'd like it for you too...
that as you give unto the world, the world will give to you.
If you can help somebody who's in sorrow and pain,
then you can say to God at night......"My day was not in vain."
And now I am contented....that my life has been worthwhile,
knowing as I passed along the way, I made somebody smile.
So if you meet somebody who is sad and feeling low,
just lend a hand to pick him up, as on your way you go.
When you're walking down the street, and you've got me on your mind;
I'm walking in your footsteps only half a step behind.
And when it's time for you to go.... from that body to be free,
remember you're not going.....you're coming here to me.
