The kids, my parents and I are off to an open house at the Community Supported Agriculture (CSA) farm where we bought a share in an organic farmers harvest. I couldn't think of a better thing to do the day after Eric died than to go and see life continuing to spring forth. No matter how hard you try, life does keep going on.
I'll post some pictures for you tomorrow!
Amy
It occured to me last night that I didn't provide you with all the "official" information.
Services for Eric will be at 10:00am on Saturday, July 26th at Grace United Methodist, 300 E Gartner Rd, Naperville
The public visitation will be from 3-9 on friday at Fredrich Jones, 44 S mill street in Naperville. There will be a Family Visitation from 2-3pm the same day. For those of you who are pallbearers, please arrive at the church by 9am.
I look forward to seeing you all this weekend. Please read tomorrow as I have a specific job I'd like you to complete before you arrive.
love,
amy

I KEEP WITH ME THE LAST CHRISTMAS GIFT THAT ERIC, AMY AND THE CHILDREN GAVE ME.
IT IS A LIGHT BULB HAND CRAFTED ALONG WITH A PRECIOUS LETTER.
THIS LIGHT BULB WAS MADE BY THE CHILDREN AND HAND PAINTED AS A SNOW MAN, "SMILING AND HAPPY" AND ON THE BACK SAYS: THE PLUMMER FAMILY 2007.
THIS WAS THE LAST CHRISTMAS THAT ERIC ENJOYED ALONG WITH THE FAMILY PRIOR TO THEIR DEPARTURE TO CHICAGO.
THEY GAVE THIS GIFT TO MY NURSE KATHY, I WAS ABSENT WITH PROBLEMS WITH A WORK RELATED INJURY.
THE LAST TIME I SAW ERIC: HE WAS FIGHTING AGAINST THESE UNFAIR CIRCUMSTANCES. HE WAS VERY CLEAR ABOUT HIS FAITH IN GOD. HIS WIFE, HIS CHILDREN AND HIS FAMILY WERE HIS PRIORITIES. HE KEPT A STRONG SPIRIT ALL THIS YEAR AND I ALWAYS HAVE MORE NEWS OF THE PLUMMER'S FAMILY READING ERIC'S BLOG.HIS BLOG HAS BEEN AN INSPIRATION IN THE DAILY FIGHT AGAINST CANCER.
I LEARNED SO MANY THINGS FROM THE EXPERIENCE OF WORKING WITH ERIC AND AMY, THEIR STRENGHT CAME FROM THEIR MUTUAL LOVE. AMY HAVE BEEN ALWAYS A WARRIOR AND I KNOW SHE WILL KEEP THE MEMOIRS OF AN HONORABLE YOUNG MAN WHO FIGHT UNDER THE MOST UNFAIR CIRCUMSTANCES AND WHOSE STRENGHT CAME FROM GOD AND HIS DEEP LOVE TOWARDS HIS FAMILY.
AMY, TIME WILL HEAL AND MAKE YOU STRONGER AND I WILL ALWAYS REMEMBER ERIC, THE CHILDREN AND YOURSELF AS A PILAR OF STRENGHT, SMILING AND TRYING TO BE HAPPY BALANCING LIFE UNDER VERY DELICATE AND DIFFICULT CIRCUMSTANCES.
LIKE THE SNOWMAN, SMILING AND KEEPING LIGHT UP UNDER A VERY DIFFICULT WINTER.
AMY, I AM VERY CERTAIN GOD WILL GIVE YOU THE RIGHT WORDS TO EXPLAIN TO YOUR CHILDREN IN THE YEARS TO COME AND TO REMIND THEM ERIC'S LEGACY.
THERE IS PEACE, NO MORE SUFFERING AND HE JOINED GOD'S ARMY OF ANGELS.
BLESSINGS,
BRENELLY LOZADA, MD
