I have had the honor of knowing Erma, Jeff and Nicole for over 30 years. When you do someone’s hair, you form a bond like no other. We have shared countless hours of conversations where it was always apparent that her family was everything to her! (I never understood the monster truck situation with this family but she would just chuckle) and I understood in those moments that as long as she was with her family, all was right in her world. Over the years, we have celebrated life’s best times with both laughter and tears and support during times of struggle. Jeff was more than her protector, he was her best friend. Ohhh the stories she would tell me…she would just shake her head and laugh at the antics that inevitably kept her on her toes.
Erma was gentle and sweet to her core but (I will always believe that Erma was in charge of that household. lol
I don’t think I ever heard her say an unkind word…well maybe once or twice but only when she was fiercely protecting her family. Nicole was her mini me , her everything and she could not have been more proud and Ellie…well she was just her pure sunshine! There are no words to express just how much I will miss seeing you…No more pain my friend!
May your family find peace and strength in the coming days knowing you will be watching over them and lastly,
May you forever R.I.P.🌹
