You will be missed, we'll always have breakfast at The Badlands. That's where you and cousin Shane met and bonded after the family reunion. He will always cherish those moments with you, you are very special to Shane. We are so sorry you are gone from this earth, but you will always, always live on in our hearts. Fly free now.
The day has come to say our final farewell. Rest in peace Erika. Until we meet again…,,
