Was wir bergen in den Saergen, ist das Erdenkleid.
Was wir lieben, ist geblieben, bleibt in Ewigkeit.
Karl and Marianne Kurzmann

Erika, 
I miss our talks, your advise as a surrogate Mom, your smile and the way you lighted up every room you entered!  I am deeply saddened and just wish for another day with you! My belief in a higher power and that your beautiful spirit was need on the other side, gives comfort that I know you are flying with snow white wings of an Angel. I will remember all the wonderful times, knowing it is not goodbye but that I will see you again. XOXO

I'm unable to come up with the words to describe how much Erika meant to us.   There's a quote that comes to mind. "It's not how long you live, but how you live that's important."  Erika lived with joy and love in her life.  She had the ability to make everyone around her feel special.  Steve and I loved her dearly, and we will miss her forever.
