So very sorry for your great loss of a loved one in death. Death certainly leaves a deep void in our hearts. Please find hope and comfort knowing that our loving creator will reunite you soon again on a Paradise Earth. (Luke23:43)

I met Erica through work and immediately considered her a friend. I live in New Mexico so our interactions were via phone. When we were done with business, we often stayed on the phone and talked about our families.

She left the company as she was offered a great opportunity with another company; we remained in contact. On occasion I get an opportunity to travel to Atlanta for work. We had planned to meet for lunch or dinner when I was there. I felt like I knew Erica very well and looked forward to the day I could meet with her in person. I am sad that I will not have this opportunity.

I am very sorry for your loss of this beautiful and loving mother, grandmother, daughter, sister, friend.

Erica's family is in my thoughts and prayers.
