“And in the sweetness of friendship, let there be laughter and sharing of pleasures.” (Kahlil Gibran) … and so much more. Thank you,my dear friend, for forty-seven years of love, joy and memories. For all those many years, the Erzar’s door was always opened wide to graciously accept me and my children. To all of us who shared in, and now celebrate your life, let us continue your legacy. To Rene, Kim, Gene, and Bryan it is indeed a tribute to your parents that you have inherited their generosity. “Ma” and “Pa” together for eternity. Love to all. Aunt Cathy
Thank you Aunt Joyce for your inspiration. Your kind, caring, generous personality influenced the lives of many and made a significant impact on so many lives. My family would like to express their deepest condolences to all those who had the privilege to know her.
