I can't even begin to express how saddened I am to hear about Erin dying. She was a beautiful soul with a lust for life. She was fun and full of life when I knew her and I wasn't expecting to see that she left this earth so soon. RIP Erin. You were a fun girl. Thank you.

Condolences to the family for this great loss. I knew Erin from the music scene. She was always so excited music whether it was about her band or seeing bands. I had a lovely conversation with her recently about just that. She will be missed by many.

Our Deepest Sympathies, Caren, and to everyone who loved Erin. With love from Jerie Jordan Don Holmes Mary Anne Holmes Laurie Holmes McDowell

Erin had a huge impact on my life as a young woman. She was one of the first people I met and became friends with when I moved to New Orleans still in my teens, and I'm so grateful for the time I was able to grow into young adulthood with her. We played in a band together and she encouraged me as a musician and was a powerful partner in creative expression. She was an incredible musician, as anyone who got the chance to play music with her knows. Playing music with her and our other friends was my favorite thing to do in life. I can still see her doing it as I replay it in my mind. I love her for her open sense of caring for others, her sense of humor, her knowledge and passion for music, her intelligence, and her uniqueness--there is no one else like Erin. And I always felt so understood by her.
Just before Hurricane Katrina, Erin and I had been planning to move in together, but the damage to New Orleans and my livelihood there made that impossible. I ended up having to leave New Orleans and I've missed Erin ever since then. But I always looked forward to seeing her again when I came back to New Orleans to visit, or hoped she might come visit me in Portland, which she did once. I had a child, and I didn't keep in great contact with her over the last several years that we've lived in different cities. I took for granted that that separation was temporary and we would be able to see each other or talk anytime we could--by a phonecall or a facebook message or even face to face if we were lucky. I really wish now I wouldn't have taken that so much for granted, because I feel the absence of her so deeply now. Her presence in my life continues to be felt, and I miss her so much.
I never got to meet her family, but thank you for giving us Erin and for sharing her with us. I'm so sorry for your loss, and for all of our loss, with her passing.
