Dear Mark & Pat and family,

Marty and I are thinking of you at this difficult time. We are also very honored to have had the priviledge to have met and spent time with both your Mom and Dad. He was a wonderful man who raised a wonderful son, and now he is at peace and with Jean again. I hope those memories of times together with Carl & Jean will stay with you, and warm your hearts!! Sincerely, Sara & Marty Skeels

Erickson family, Sorry to hear about your loss. Our thoughts and prayers are with you all.

Dave, Kristin, Carly & Greta Hendrickson

Mark, Pat, Brandi, and Sean

We are sorry to hear of the passing of your father. He was a member of the greatest generation, whose sacrifice during World War Two, preserved freedom in Europe and democracy. It was our pleasure at Brandi’s wedding reception to share the table with Jean and Carl. A clear take away from that night was how much they cherished Mark, Pat and the Grandchildren. I remember your dad talking about all the maintenance that a wooden boat required when we went out on Lake Minnetonka. He also asked if we had enough rum for our voyage.
May he rest in eternal peace.

Your friends,
Jerry and Linda Brown

Thinking of your family at this time. Landis Stutzman Family

Mark hard to believe its been 50 years, we shared some great moments with “Cliffie”, I can still remember trying to wait up until 2 am for hockey practice, dozing off at 1:50 am only to see the tail lights of Cliffie’s car turning the corner at 2:05 am. He truly was very structured, and made no bones about it. I will always have these great memories of both Jean and Carl who are together again. Are thoughts are with you, Pat and the rest of the family.

John, Laura, Melissa, and Ryan

Mark:
I can only add to the above of the previous people, those of us who knew your Mom and Dad, loved them and they were very proud of you and your family, and all I can say is he will be missed by all of us who really knew him. God bless him as well as your Mom and may they meet at a better place.
Our deepest condolences for both of them.
Ole and Kathy Jensen

Mark and Pat,
Our thoughts and prayers are with you as you celebrate the life of your father. We very much enjoyed meeting and spending time with your parents during our time in Eden Prairie. Wonderful people who lived life to the fullest and very much loved their family! I always admired the multi-generational picture of your father, Mark and Shaun on hockey skates and uniform, what a great legend!

Your friends – Dave and Dianne and family

To our Erickson Family – it was an honor and privilege to know your Dad – a true american hero. Although we will miss his smile and spirit – he and Jena are never far away. They now have glorious angel wings. Thinking of you all with much love and support.
