RICHARD ELMER ERICKSON

Sorry for your loss. At 2 Corn 1:3, 4 God is a god of all tender mercy who will comfort you in your times of sadness.

I am so very sorry for your loss and wish to send my sincere condolences to your family at this very sorrowful time. May drawing close to God in prayer bring you comfort and peace knowing that he cares for you. 1 Pet 5:7.

Richard was an amazing person. Just looking at his smile made you want to smile. He was a fountain of knowledge about so many subjects, he was a consummate professional, always ready to help, always with a smile and never a bad word about anybody. Whenever I called the house Richard and Sue would always say they were fine, never complain. The tour guide community will miss Richard, the groups he led were lucky to have had him, and those of us who knew him were very blessed to have known him.
