As some of you know, we lost our only child, Erik, age 33, very suddenly in October, 2003. The funeral was held at University Lutheran Church of Hope. We continue to miss him very much.
Karen still works part-time as a Family Therapist in private practice. We enjoy our lake cabin in northern Minnesota which we share often with family and friends. My hobbies include doing carpentry and writing poetry.
Karen and I look forward to seeing old friend and making new friends at University Lutheran Church of Hope.
