Cancer is a terrible illness at any point in one's life, but especially when it strikes someone so young and with so much to offer in life. This is 2011 - why is there not a cure for cancer and Alzheimer's Disease? Guess in a good and perfect world there would be and that is not the world we live in.
December 9, 2011 our family lost a young man that was rock solid in his walk with the Lord. I wrote on my blog in August 2009 that Eric is the type of young man every parent prays that their daughter will bring home to dinner. Eric read my blogs, back in the day when I blogged, gave me permission to seek prayers on his behalf, and was grateful to know others were praying for him through the blog world. Eric woke to Heaven's glory, and was met by his Granddad who might have took him fishing. Many years ago, Mr. Warren promised the five Warren grandkids 20 dollars to anyone that caught a white catfish from the family pond.
I remember Eric's visit to Scotland and how he would have to duck to tour the local castles since he was well over 6 feet even while still in high school. Eric was such a smart guy and read everything. He was the easiest person to buy for on our Christmas shopping list - a Barnes and Noble gift card for his reading pleasure!
For those of you that might be interested, logon to www.crawfordfuneralservice.com to read Eric's obituary. Modern technology is so awesome in this day and age - hopefully one day medicine will catch up and find a cure for cancer.
