Eric Melin Obituary

It is with sincere sadness that I write this after receiving the sudden and tragic news of Eric's passing. It has been years since I have last seen Eric, however I have been proud of the life he had made for himself after the heartbreaking loss of his mother and brother earier in his life.

Eric was always a happy and beautiful young man, and it saddens me dearly that he is gone.

We would also like to offer our deepest condolences to his girlfriend Courtney, and ask that she contact us to offer our sympathy for her great loss.

With great sadness and love,
Uncle Bruce Westerlund and Family

I wish I had more time with Eric.

Eric was a wonderful person. A man who lived his life to the fullest. We will miss his friendship and easy-going nature. Thoughts and Prayers to Eric and all those close to him.

I will miss Eric with my heart and soul. I am Eric's aunt. Eric did not really remember, JoAnn, his mother,(my sister) but she loved him so very much.I have great memories and pictures of him from the time he was born until he moved away. He looked almost exactly like my son Kevin. I am so regretful that I did not keep in touch more with him. Eric is going to be missed greatly by myself, and his cousins Ken and Kevin and his grandparents. For you, Courtney, the last email that I received from Eric stated that he loved you so very much. You must be quite special. I have some letters written to me by Eric and Paul when then were young and I will treasure them forever. My grief lies very deep for Eric. My only hope is that he is at peace and together with JoAnn and Paul.
