 Erika Meyer...May She Rest in Peace
<br/> Get a playlist! Standalone player Get Ringtones




Some people live their lives as a shining example of how we are SUPPOSED to behave.
Regardless of age, faith, culture, gender, occupation, economic status… it doesn’t matter. There is an unwritten code and we all know it…Instinctually, as human beings, we know it. But few of us really live what we know. Erika Meyer was a person who knew it and lived it. She was a member of our Thoughts family and she passed away this early this morning. Her name here was “cancer sucks”. Her husband, Andrew, has posted the news on her blog site. She started her blogs when she found out about her rare, aggressive and devastating cancer. Anyone who has been touched by this disease knows there is a fellowship amongst those who share in this experience. Erika wanted to leave a legacy of information and understanding for those who suffer similarly. She was brave, funny, warm, hopeful, honest, and …did I say brave? Her blogs are amazing, considering what she was enduring. If you want to experience a true hero’s story…and be forwarned…grab some tissues….read Erika’s story. She was one beautiful lady.

This is the link to Andrew's message to the Thoughts community:

Freaky,

Thanks for posting this, it says alot about the person you are, and your rich character. I never read her blogs, so I didn't know her, but I will surely keep her, and her family in my prayers.

If you want to read a hero's story....go to her blogs and read...she only began in June or July, I think....they are very special, indeed....she kept it real.

What a beautiful tribute, to such an inspiring soul. I sit here tonight in shock. When you've been "touched" by this evil disease, stories like this just hit home that much harder. May you rest in peace, Erika.

This is such a nice tribute for Erika. My daughter Amy had Erika in 1st grade and she was just a wonderful teacher and great person. She will truly be missed.

Thank you for writing something so nice about my friend. I was so shocked when I learned the news this morning and am still shocked now. It was terrible when we found out back in June but I have read her blog almost every day since and have been inspired by almost every message. I couldn't believe it when I heard this morning and still can't now. Your message perfectly summed up the amazing soul she had. She is a beautiful person and will be greatly missed here.

Thanks again.

Erika was a truly wonderful young lady and I was very proud to have her as my niece-in-law! She is our HERO forever! God's newest angel is watching over us. Thank you all! - Andrew's Aunt

Thank you for the beautiful tribute to my daughter, Erika. We miss her terribly but celebrate the love and joy she brought to our lives for the last 29 years. Erika lived life with more joy, love and strength than anyone I have every know. She was the most extraordinary daughter.

For everyone who read her blogs and supported her and us in this devastating journey, I send my heartfelt thanks.

In her loving memory,
Erika's mom

As a mother of a young cancer survivor, I reach out to you and want you to know that Erika will live on in my heart and memory. She will be always in my prayers, as will her loving family. Bless all of you.
