My condolences to the family of Erick and Melinda. The loss of a parent is never easy. You are all in my thoughts.
My deepest sympathy to Erick's family. I pray all the good memories you have will help you get through this very difficult time. My heart broke when I heard what happened to them. Erick was a character. I enjoyed getting to know him and Melinda after they moved to the Mountainville Ward in Fairview. I loved hearing his life stories. I told him he needed to write a book because he experienced more in his life than ten other men combined. I will miss his stories and his smile.
