    Roy and Pauline,
    Sorry to hear of death of your brother . Losing a loved one leaves an empty space in your heart for awhile, then it overflows from all the love you’ve had together over the years. Cherish each and every memory.

    My heart aches for everyone as you say goodbye to Eric. I was happy to call him my brother in law. I’m sorry I’m not there ,but so glad Roy was able to be there with you all. I didn’t think when we left Oct 12th it would be our last goodbye. Rest in peace Eric. We love you!

    Condolences to you all. I will have fond memories of Uncle Eric,for the years you lived up here but especially the last time i came to visit and he took us to see the caplin. We didnt take a bag or bucket to put them in so we stuffed them in an empty coffee cup (we got 15) and then he fried them up for us as soon as we got back to your place. He will be missed but may he rest in peace. Hugs to you all. Dave, Liz & Madison
