Debra, Ricky, Olive and all your children and Mr. Erbie’s Grandchildren and families, we are so sorry to see that he has passed from this life, but rejoicing that he is with your Mom and is out of pain and suffering. He is no longer suffering from a disease that was with him; he no longer is down with this. You will see all of your families again including your Mom and Dad. You are all in our thoughts and prayers. We love you.
