I am so sadden by this. My heart goes out to all who knew her, especially Daryl, Marsha, Justin, Tyler and my dear, sweet Aunt Fay. I was so excited after last years reunion. Erin and I talked a lot and exchanged pictures from the day. I was thinking how nice it will be to have a cousin my age to share things with as we got older. Sadly those days will not come, but I know that her wonderful smile and kind heart will live on in Justin. I wish I could be there tomorrow, but please know that I will be thinking of all of you.

Darryl, Marsha and Ty: We are deeply saddened for your family's loss. Our children spoke often of the sweet nature and the gentle kindnesses that Erin showed to them both. Our family has shared many stories of her allowing our kids to visit the family farm to experience the things she loved. Please know that your beautiful daughter was dear to us all. God Bless.

Erin was a truly beautiful person; so quiet and kind. I remember when I first started at BGS in the 7th grade, knowing no one- she was one of the first people to speak to me and make me feel comfortable. My prayers are with her family and son.

Erin, I want to thank you for everything you have shared with my daughter. You touched her life in ways that only a special woman like you could do. Thank you for being someone she could depend on to call and walk her through the simplest things like how to put the swiffer duster on the handle! You showed her how to be kind, gentle, and loving especially during the difficulties life brings. Even though most of our time together was spent refereeing these kids, I am honored that we all got the opportunity to know you and love you. You raised a very special and incredible young man. You did good Mom. I will miss you dearly.

Erin and I where very close when we was younger. She lived right down the street from me when we was younger and I would always be going to her house. We where very close growing up and she was the sweetest kindest person. She will be missed dearly and its tragic that she went so young. Praying for her mother and father and especially her brother. My prayers go out to you.

When I think of Erin, I think back to a darker time in my life when I was in need of communication from friends and family. Beginning at the age of 10 Erin was an individual who showed a surprising willingness to share her life with me in the form of letters written in the typical style of a young girl. Big round letters, as I recall, you know the style. Her letters always came as a delight to receive and were always written with dignity, humor, respect, and the absence of judgement fitting of someone much older than herself. I will never forget the compassion she showed in her letters or how they helped to make me feel like someone actually cared. They never failed to brighten my day. Thank you Erin, your compassion and unselfish willingness to communicate left an impression I will never forget. Rest in peace my young friend, rest in peace.

Beautiful Erin.....I remember the days when she would occasionally babysit my sons. Her face could light up a room. Wonderful family. I am still in shock about her death. I have been praying a lot for all of you and will continue to do it.

I believe that as we enter Heaven our bad memories are left behind and we only have good ones of earth. I think that's how you should remember Erin, the good memories you have of her. Don't let the bad ones have center stage. Cherish the life you shared with her although it was much too short. My heart is breaking for you Darryl, Marsha, Tyler, and Justin.

Erin's middle name fits her so well. I became friends with her and her son when he became our paper boy. Thru the time of the paper delivery she and I shared so many things, from flowers (Justin called me the garden lady) to her job as a dispatcher, to her faith. I will miss her terribly but I know that I will see her again. She and Justin are very very special to me.
