Condolence: I am still in disbelief of this incredible loss. I am so glad I had a chance to know you, even if it was just a little bit and for a little while. Your life was amazing to watch as you grew into the woman you became - I will remember you! ♥

Condolence: Erin started our Mental Health & Wellness Advisory Board here at MCAS Cherry Point in 2011 and it continues to this day. I'm so saddened to hear of her passing but please know she surely made a difference for the Sailors, Marines and staff here aboard the base and at the Naval Health Clinic. She saw a need and brought us together as a team which isn't easy with so many different entities aboard the base. An energetic force, she could move mountains! MY deepest sympathy for your loss.

Condolence: How quickly a vibrant life can be gone. She was such a gift for us all. I never imagined this. I am only glad I got to know her and that she lived life to the fullest while it was hers, and ours. I'll never forget being with her the morning of 9/11, sharing that shock and disbelief, not dissimilar from my current feelings about her passing.

Condolence: I am profoundly heartbroken over our loss yet am way beyond grateful to have known Erin, to have witnessed her unique abilities to connect with and teach others. Erin would want us to persevere, and we will.

Condolence: Erin volunteered to co-lead the Painting a Moving Train program with me back in 2008 when our mutual friend and colleague, Cmdr. Charles Keith Springle, deployed to Iraq. The purpose of our program was to teach community medical and mental health providers something useful about military culture and about the possible effects of deployment stress on Service Members, Veterans and their families. Keith was killed in Iraq in May 2009 and Erin took up the cause for the next several years. Together with Bob Goodale of the Citizen Soldier Support Program, we gave countless presentations across North Carolina and around the country. Over time, our training has been taken by well over 30,000 clinicians. It was characteristic of Erin that she shared her life and her professional knowledge and skills with others in ways that enriched them and their families. She has made a tremendous difference in the lives of others. I learned so much from her and I hope to keep spreading her message. I was proud to have her as my friend.
