Erica Dussa - With broken hearts and deep sadness we announce the sudden passing of Erica Dussa in the early hours of February 15th, 2014. Erica was a very devoted wife and a business partner to her husband for 56 years. She was a loving and caring mom, her family was her life and she cared deeply for people close to her heart. Erica loved poetry and reading and was passionate about helping the less fortunate. She leaves her loving memories to be cherished by her family; loving husband Arthur, son Rene, daughter Monica (Robert De Spain). A Celebration of Life will be held at 4:00pm on Sunday, March 2nd at St. Mark's Evangelical Lutheran Church, 1573 East 18th Avenue, Vancouver.

We are saddened to hear of Erica's passing. She was instrumental in allowing us to move our business onto Main Street, and we will be forever grateful. We have enjoyed listening to the stories Arthur tells us about how he met Erica, and their early years together. It was a pleasure to see such love in Arthur's voice, and reflected in his face, when he talked about his wife of so many years. Our thoughts are with you all.
