To Pam and the Payne family,

Gone but not forgotten. As the days go by may your memories of Eric get sweeter and sweeter. Continue to look to the hills from whence cometh all your help; because we know that joy will come in the morning. Allow the peace of God to sustain you all as you keep your minds stayed on him.

I will never forget my cousin and will keep the family uplifted in prayer.
