Danny ERICKSON Obituary

Danny Alan Erickson better known as (Slappy, Dan, DE, Danno), 70, of Spokane, WA, passed away suddenly on November 8th, 2021.

Danny was born in Denver, CO to Carl Henry Erickson and Mary Isabelle Erickson (McGruder). He grew up with sisters Cheryl (Cheri), Marcia and brother Ron. He moved to Spokane, WA in 1953. Dan graduated from Mead High School and worked in the battery industry over 20 years. He had many nicknames one of them was "Dan Dan the battery man". He was a walking and talking human dictionary and made many of us laugh for hours on end. Dan loved his scratch tickets and frequented the local casinos. He will be missed by many friends and family.
