Erica was known for her dry sense of humor, sassiness and her tell it the way it is personality. She was also known for the love she had for her family and her beloved dogs, but mostly for the numerous selfies she sent to friends and family wearing eclectic hats. She loved bowling with her family and friends, and had an extensive collection of coach purses and Longhorn memorabilia. She loved the Christmas holiday and was always overjoyed to pass out presents to her nieces and nephews. Most of all, her family and friends will always remember the love she showed them.
