Erick,
I thank God for your life! 
We are sorry to loose you in such an early age.
I have fun memories when we were little and use to play in Mexicali (on the dusty streets).
Mary,
May the Lord grant peace to you, his wife and little ones.
Love,
Fredy,

Being  close friends with Yvonne  I gained an older brother in Erick.  He was a great older brother that looked out for not only Yvonne, Joey and Michelle but me too. He loved Mary and could always get a smile out of her even when he was being ornery. He was hilarious and good hearted and will be very missed. RIP brother sorry I'm having to say this so soon.

I’m the oldest of my siblings and growing up, the only people I had to look up to were my older cousins. Lucky for me we have a huge family and Erick happen to be one of the cousins that made the time for me when I was around. Sure he didn’t include me in everything he did but he always made me feel like a younger brother when I was around him. I don’t watch wrestling anymore but I recall loving watching wrestling with him. I enjoyed spending time with him so much that I’d try to stay the night at his house when ever possible. I remember one time I was so upset with my mom because she wouldn’t let me stay even after Mary had said it was ok. As we were driving away I asked repeatedly why couldn’t I stay and my mom would only say because I said so. When my mom stoped at the stop sign I jumped out the car and took off running which of course didn’t help me get to stay the night but got a butt whippin, but that’s just how much I enjoyed being around him. I recall us  being at my tia Nelly’s swimming in the canal behind her house which happen to divide U.S.A from Mexico. Erick showed me how to fish in that canal; however, we didn’t have fishing poles. Erick grab a empty soda can and poked a hole through it , tied some fishing line on it and begin wrapping the can with fishing line. Once he had enough fishing line that he wanted he tied a hook on and off fishing we went :) The first job I had was inspired by a memory of Erick. I had helped Erick with his paper route a few times as a youngster and when I was a teenager I remember how much fun I had helping him with his,I decided to become a paperboy to make a few bucks. Unfortunately for me I didnt think it was so much fun doing it my self, so that didn’t last long. Overall I have great childhood memory’s of Erick and only a very few as adults as we grew apart on our own paths; however, I still love him as brother and will miss him very much and will never forget him. May god be with you Erick and your Family.  R.I.P Erick

I went to Ericks house one day and his work truck wasnt there but he was standing at the kitchen window and i ask him where is your work truck and he gave me this dumb founded look and said its in the driveway and he looked and it wasnt there and said s.... Its been stolen and come to find out he forgot Leichelle and the kids picked him up to go shopping. Lol love you son your gonna be missed by many.

I met Erick about 18 years ago .   His oldest daughter used to come over to my house and play with my son.   He was an amazing person, always making you laugh. He had a way of making you feel right at home.   He was always respectful and polite. Not one time did I ever witness him being rude or mean to anybody.    I will always remember him as being happy and funny. He really did have a great sense of humor. The first time I met him, he was sitting on his bed with a large bucket of dirt and a plate. He said that he was “panning for gold”.   Unfortunately, I didn’t get a chance to see him after he left California.   He became part of my family when he married my cousin.  I know that she is heartbroken and devastated.  Eric, my friend, our lives will never be the same. Rest in peace and know that you were loved and will be missed so much. And to my cousin, I hope that God will give you peace and you can get through this somehow for the kids I love you guys.  

We are heartbroken. We will truly miss Sunshine. Work won’t be the same without him. He was our friend and our family. He was kind, funny, and always happy. We loved him with our whole hearts. God Bless you and the children. We will keep you in our thoughts and prayers. Love you all! Dennis & Laura Anderson

Love and prayers from Tieranie & Patrick Albright

Erick, my cousin. Sadly we only met once, I didn’t need to know you to understand you will be missed by many. Your memory will live in the hearts of those whose lives you blessed. May your soul now rest peacefully in heaven.

From Natalie, Alex & Erica. We love you primo! Rest in paradise

My cousin.... And for many years, another brother who helped me along life’s young journey. I never said thank you, you will be missed. Thanks helping me figure out life early on.

This is absolutely heart-breaking. Erick was such an amazing man, dad, husband, and friend. Over the years that I have had the pleasure of knowing Erick, I have been truly inspired by how passionately he embraced life. He worked so hard and loved you and the kids SO MUCH Leichelle. I feel deeply honored to have known Erick and immensely saddened to hear that he passed away so suddenly, unexpectedly, and at such a young age. My heart goes out to you Leichelle. We are here for you and want to help in whatever ways that we can. May Erick rest in ever-lasting peace and may you, the kids and the family find comfort in knowing that Erick was such an amazing person while he was here with us. I'm certain that he is watching over you and wishing that he could take the pain away. I'm hopeful that time will provide comfort. With love and sincerity, Dan and Karassa Schaefer

So when I use to live with Erick I got really really drunk . I got driven home and proceeded to puke my guts up and past out on the bathroom  floor Erick picked me up and put me in my bed . Where I fell out of a few minutes  later he came back with water picked me up again as I was yell at him ,"DONT PICK ME UP LIKE A BABY". he laughed and put me back in bed . It's been a running joke ever since 

Loved visiting this lovely family every vacation I took. Erick was one of a kind, very loving  towards his family always made you feel welcome in their home. Erick was a great dad to his children and a great husband to my niece Leichelle.  He will  truly be missed 

My son in law Erick was an amazing man he loved his family more then anything in this world. He made sure my daughter Leichelle and my grand babies had everything they needed.  I remember when we went to the lake in your boat having a blast and just watching how happy you were at holidays watching the kids at Christmas opening their presents. You were the sunshine of your families lifes no wonder you earned the name Sunshine.  Des, Ren, stud muffin & Hunter your daddy loves you. Leichelle you were Erick's honey all he could talk about is how much he loves you and what ever his honey wanted. Anytime we were together it was also an amazing memory. 



Was another brother to me growing up. I watched two “older brothers” in Erick and Goyo do what teenagers do.  Erick and Goyo were best friends; they were brothers. I had the joy of having someone like Erick lead me along in figuring out life.   He was an awesome role model to Yvonne, Michelle, and Joey. He treated me just as he did them.  As life progressed and we went in different directions, I was always curious about what he was up to. I wish I would have followed up more closely on my curiousity. My only complaint was he was a 49ers fan, ewww no. Sorry primo, I could never forgive you for that. RIP. 

Erick, lee, and, took the kids shooting not to long back. We took 22s for the kids shooting at bottles and random stuff left by others. He would go on one knee and hold each one of the kids steady allowing them to shoot.  You could see the joy in his face as he held baby Erick and let him pull the trigger .  He was a great father also put the kids first .  He would come to work and brag about how proud he was when the kids would learn new things . It was not very often that you could have a conversation with him without him bragging about what they have learned in school or what he has taught them . 

Wow where to begin. ...
 One of the funniest memories  I have with Erick is when he thought someone stole his work truck . He call our boss and told me  and was told to call the cops while the boss got the paperwork for the truck ready so they could file a report .  He said he started dialing the number when the remembered that Lee pick him up from work on Friday and went shopping leaving his work truck at the shop .  He had to call the boss back and explain what he did . When he called me and tried to explain what happened he could not stop laughing.   
He was a great man I surely will miss hearing his laugh and talking to him while on the way home from work .
