Not sure what to say?





To the Kullberg Family. We remember the viewing and Funeral at Memorial Gardens in 2011. We never meant Eric but his Sister Pam is our daughter-in-law. She is a very sweet & kind person. I've heard the same words to describe him. Hard to believe how the years have passed so quickly. My Brother passed in 1996, hard to accept his passing but God had a place waiting for him...

Hello Kullberg Family,

Eric was the best kind of person. He had an AWESOME sense of humor and was always ready and willing to be the first to do something fun. He was there for his friends. I have great memories of him and rafting and other young adult activities. It was sad to see him at the viewing. Know that our thoughts and prayers are with you. Eric is up there making the others laugh and play. Sad for us but I am very happy for him.

Dear Kullberg family,
I am very sorry to hear of Eric's passing. Although it has been years since I have seen him, I always knew him to be a very kind person.

Eric-
you will be missed. I will never forget your sense of humor and joy in living. I don't think I have ever laughed so much as on the Deschutes river rafting trip with you as our guide. It is one of my best memories from all my years in young adults.
I know heaven is a happier place with you there, but earth just got a little sadder!

To: The Kullberg Family, I hope the memories will give you comfort. When John & I were at the viewing today we met some good friends of Eric and they all had good things to say about him I think they were schools friends. We will keep him and the family in our prayers.

Alice and family,
I was sorry to read about the loss of your son Eric. I remember him as a young boy when we worked together at the bank.
I haven't see you for years, I had heard that you moved to Arizona. Hope and pray that God is with you and your family, and comforts you thru your loss.
We know what it is too loose a child.
God be with you all.
