ERICKSON; Harriet Viola
The family of Harriet Viola Erickson (Herrmann) is sad to announce her passing April 9, 2016, after making her final goal: celebrating her 88th birthday. Mom was born in Stockton, California March 5, 1928 to Harry and Magdalene Herrmann. She met Robert Erickson at Augustana College in Rock Island, Illinois. They married and moved to Canada as a new pastor and pastor's wife, and lived in various spots across the prairies. Mom retired from teaching kids with special needs in North Battleford, Saskatchewan in 1988. In 2005 Bob and Harriet made the move to Menno Place in Abbotsford, British Columbia. Harriet was predeceased by her parents, sister Anella Swanson, husband Robert Erickson (2012), and grandson Aden Glatt (2011). She is survived and cherished by her children: Deb Erickson (Michael Murdock), Dave Erickson, Steve Erickson, Ruth Glatt (Alan Glatt), grandchildren and great-grandchildren, sisters and brothers-in-law; and many nieces and nephews. In her later years she loved her morning walks, time spent with family, her church, and fellow residents of Menno Home. The memorial service was held at Peace Lutheran Church Friday April 15th. Donations in her memory can be made to Cancer or Alzheimers Society or the charity of your choice. Online condolences may be sent to the family by visiting:
