On Oct27th, our family lost Erick Stuart. Erick was our beloved cousin — a person who brought light into the lives of those who knew him. This page is being started to help cover funeral and memorial expenses, travel and lodging for family who must come together from out of town, and any outstanding bills that have left his family in urgent need. What the funds will go toward - Funeral and memorial service expenses - Travel and accommodations for family members to attend - Immediate financial needs for Erick’s household/family (bills, rent, etc.) - Any remaining medical or administrative costs Erick was known to his family and friends as such a blessing. We will miss his love for music and how he made you laugh so easily. If you have a memory or photo you’d like to share, please post it here; the family would cherish it. How you can help - Donate whatever you can — every bit helps. - Share this page with friends, community groups, and social networks. - Leave a message, memory, or photo for the family.
