My heart pours out with grief for Jan, I love her so much and it brings me such pain knowing the suffering she is having. My god, Eric was in the best years of his life and so unexpected we lost him. He was onle a baby, maybe 9 months when Jan and I took him and my son in out pergola strollers shopping and eating on Michigan Avenue in Chicago. He was such a beautiful baby! He looked like all the Gallenson babies. Then he grew to be a success and enjoying the best time in his life. What a mensch! I dont know how we can ever go on, it's such a tragedy and yet that is what Eric would want his mom to do... live every day to the fullest and bask in the love and memories she has for her child. Jan, I want you to know I'm here and understand why I dont hear from you like I wish you did. My heart goes out to you and I'm here whenever you need me. I love you very very much. All the Gallenson's love you Jan. Plan a trip and come stay with me or let's go stay with Mavis. Let's make some new memories!

My heart is aching. When I read this I fell to the floor. It took me until today to be able to comprehend it. I remember holding precious baby Eric in their Highland Park apartment. Janis and I would take our babies in strollers and shop Michigan Avenue. Please dear God take care of Eric and help console his family. Please Janis, reach out and call or text me 385-499-7225. Your cousin, Rochelle Gallenson
