Erin I will miss you. Every time I came home to visit it seemed liked you just got older and more mature, until finally you start looking as old as me! You grew into a beautiful, intelligent, and sweet young lady (with long pretty hair, lol). You always were so giggly and happy and I loved that. Last time I saw you you told me you were going to BG in the fall and you were going for accounting and wanted to get your CPA, and I said "I'm going to get my CPA too." But I was thinking in my head it might take me a while to get mines but I know Erin will have hers soon because she's always on top of her business. Well I want to let you know that your dreams will not die. I will always look to you as an inspiration. I love you and I'm so proud of the woman you became. May your soul rest peacefully and your spirit dwell with the best angels in heaven.

Hey Erin, I Really Don't Know What To Say. I Can't Believe That You're Gone. I Enjoyed The Times That We Spent And The Memories That You Left Me With. You Always Had Good Things To Say. I Never Seen You Without A Smile. I'm Glad To Have Known An Wonderful Person Like You. SO WARM HEARTED And GORGEOUS. You Are A Very Strong Young Lady And You Put Up A Tough Fight. Your Family Is Also Strong. Stronger Than I Thought. We All Miss You Erin And We'll Never Forget You, You'll Always Be In Our Hearts. It's Never Goodbye It's Always I'll See You Later! My Prayers Are With The Family And I'll Always Be There. Zion And I Love Y'all! Erin We Can See Your Halo, We Got Our Angel Now.

I remember when I first told you I was moving back home you were so excited you told me "finally I'll have someone to go out with" & in my mind I was thinking "If Erin can talk about going out to clubs you know we are really growing up" since you, me, and Ashley ages were back to back you were so happy when you hit the BIG 18 mark. But a big heartbreak for me was that I really wish you couldve walked across that stage if it was the last thing you had to do. You were just so excited from counting down each day telling us its 32 more days, to reminding us the date which was May 24, to writing the date and time on grandmas bathroom mirror. You told me all your graduation party plans from how you wanted to decorate to what you wanted your guests to eat and you were so ready for it. Im so lucky that I have 18 years worth of memories to look back on & hold in my heart.I miss & love you!!

The Cord
We are connected,
My child and I, by
An invisible cord
Not seen by the eye.
It's not like the cord
That connects us 'til birth
This cord can't been seen
By any on Earth.
This cord does it's work
Right from the start.
It binds us together
Attached to my heart.
I know that it's there
Though no one can see
The invisible cord
From my child to me.
The strength of this cord
Is hard to describe.
It can't be destroyed
It can't be denied.
It's stronger than any cord
Man could create
It withstands the test
Can hold any weight.
And though you are gone,
Though you're not here with me,
The cord is still there
But no one can see.
It pulls at my heart
I am bruised...I am sore,
But this cord is my lifeline
As never before.
I am thankful that God
Connects us this way
A mother and child
Death can't take it away!

The former things have passed away." - Revelation 21: 3, 4. Your family is here to support and encourage you.

Dear Erin,
My heart is so heavy right now there is so much that I wish I had said to you. We were together for 11 years which was not long enough. I loved you like a daughter. I will miss your cheerful phone calls, your giggles in between sentences as well as your place on this earth. I will always love you and will hold you and your memories close in my heart so that I may retrieve them when the pain gets too tough. I am proud to have known you and to have held a special place in your life "One day we will meet again" My Erin.
