Hi everyone, my name is John Rogers and I have been friends with Eric Wright since the first grade.

 

As many of you are aware by now, Eric tragically suffered a massive stroke in the morning hours of Saturday, July 2nd. He was hospitalized in Mora, MN but quickly airlifted to downtown St. Paul where they performed emergency surgery to try and mitigate the amount of damage caused by the stroke. He passed away on the evening of Wednesday, July 6th.

 

Eric has had a profound impact on so many of us. He is a wonderful friend, son, brother. But above all, he is an amazing husband and father. He occupies such a huge role in the lives of his wife Vanessa and their children Herbie, Lilly, and Aldwen. And they need our support now.

 

The funds raised here will help support Vanessa and the kids through this tragic event. Our goal is that with all of the difficulties and stresses they will encounter during this time, finances will not be one of them.

 

No gift is too small or too large. We greatly appreciate any support you can provide them.
