Our deepest condolences to Lorraine, Donnie , Becky & families - I have known The Erickson family since Catholic school at St Edmond's many years ago with many fond memories. My mother was a member of the Sodality with her. She was such a sweet & kind lady. Remembering all of you in our thoughts & prayers
Lorraine and Family - seeing your Mother’s obituary brought back memories of St.Edmonds and the ladies of the Sodality. They were always there to help with whatever was needed for the church community. Wishing you all of the good memories, peace and comfort possible.
This one hits close to home. Mrs. Erickson ("Mrs. E") welcomed me into her family when I was forced upon them in the early 80s after Becky and I started working together at Lloyd's IGA in Lewes. We got into a lot of trouble, but Mrs. E. tolerated it (and she was understanding about my mother that one fateful night...) with poise and kindness. I always adored hanging out with the Ericksons, and they knew how to have fun! I cherish the decades of Christmas mornings spent at their house. I was always welcomed, and it was always fun. Rest well and easy, good lady. I will miss you oh so much.
Lorraine and family... I am so sorry for your loss... My deepest condolences....JoAnn Ianire Elliott
