Our family is sending our deepest sympathies to Wayne, Kristina, Gabe and all who knew and loved Erika. She was a special light in this world and she will be sadly missed by many. However, I truly believe that she is now able to do anything and everything she may have wanted to do, that her fragile frame wouldn't allow her to do in this life. She is free now, and her abilities are limitless. God bless you and keep you Erika. You deserve every reward God has to give to you. All our love and thoughts are with the family now. Love, Donna, Kris, Tyler and Rick

I am so sorry to hear of your loss. I worked with Erika while I was employed with Trend Mental Health and remember her as a very sweet and precious young lady. My prayers are with you and your family.

Although I did not know Erica, I am a good friend of her Dad, Wayne. Knowing Wayne as a loving, compassionate and giving man, I am confident Erica received these qualities from him. Friends in adversity, knowing great suffering, Dad and Daughter are kindred spirits in life and in her death. My prayers and throughts are with you all as you celebrate her life and grieve your loss.

Erica was in my class at Upward Elementary and I remember her very well. She was a sweet and wonderful young lady and a pleasure to have in our room. My thoughts and prayers are with you at this difficult time.

Se tu conoscessi il mistero immenso del cielo dove vivo, se tu potessi vedere e sentire quello che io vedo e sento in questi orizzonti senza fine ed in questa luce che tutto investe e penetra, tu non piangeresti, se mi ami! L'incanto di Dio e delle sue espressioni di sconfinata bellezza sono ormai parte del mio essere. Le cose di un tempo, al confronto, sono immensamente piccole e quasi senza colore. Mi Ë rimasto un intenso affetto per te, una tenerezza che non ho mai conosciuto. Sono felice di averti incontrato ed amato nel tempo, ma tutto era allora cosÏ fugace e limitato! Ora vivo nella serena e gioiosa attesa del tuo arrivo tra noi, tu pensami cosÏ! Nelle tue difficolt? richiama alla mente questa meravigliosa casa dove non esiste pi? la morte e dove insieme ci disseteremo, nel trasporto pi? intenso e pi? puro, alla fonte inestinguibile della gioia e dell'amore! Non piangere quindi, se veramente mi ami!

I just want you to know you are in my thoughts and prayers.

Gabriele and family: I am so sorry for your loss, I pray God will hold you and comfort you in this time of great loss. God Bless You

Dear Wayne, Gabriele and Kristina. I wish I could find the words to ease your pain. Losing a child and sibling is one of the saddest life challenges and words that can give you true comfort are difficult to find. Know that I am holding you in my thoughts and prayers. Love, Gayle

I am to assume that Erika had Rett Syndrome. Your Angel has earned her wings and will forever be in our King's presence. My heart and prayers go out to your family. Guardian of my own Angel - Taylor 9 years RTT Burnsville, NC

To the family I was very sorry to read Erika N. Mitchell passed away, I have not met the family personally but it's my hope that you gain the needed strength to endure, because when we lose someone we love the loss seems too great to bear. However remembering Jesus gave his own perfect life as the basis for removing from mankind the curse of imperfection, sickness and death is a comforting thought. Also the bible says, Soon God will wipe out every tear from our eyes, and death will be no more, neither will mourning nor outcry nor pain be anymore. The former things have passed awayÖRevelation 21:4 I hope it will give the family comfort too. My deepest sympathy to the family.

Our thoughts and prayers to the family. All of our love as well.
