In honor of Erick Van Brakle
Donation protected
All of us have lost a remarkable person too soon and unexpectedly on Tuesday, June 12th. A person that brought such joy and happiness into all of those whose lives he touched. What do you call an amazing son, brother, father, uncle, mentor, co-worker, comedian and so much more? A jack of all trades is what may come to mind but we called this larger than life persona, Erick, known to some as Big E.
Erick was big in character, big in family, big in heart, and huge in laughs. His jokes kept our sides hurting, yet his positive outlook on life kept our hearts full of love. To know him was to love him because Erick was an instant friend to everyone he met! Many people have told us throughout this incredibly tough time that Erick changed their lives by just being him! He was so positive and so full of life. The love and friendship that he gave will forever leave an imprint in our hearts and minds.
His charismatic personality has certainly blessed all of us with many laughs and pure joy, more times than could be counted. Erick was such a loving and kind hearted person that always put the needs of his family and friends before the needs of his own. For that, we will truly miss him.
We humbly request the assistance of our family, friends, co-workers, and loved ones near and far. Please join us in helping to provide our loved one, Erick with the home going that he so deserves. We need your help with raising the money for his funeral expenses no later than Monday, June 18th. I know this date will come rather fast, however, we will continue to accept donations after that date. We believe that with your help, NOTHING is impossible!
