Amy Erickson

As we get close to Amy's Birthday I would like to share this with you. Many of you know one of the women that our daughter Amy is named after was a good friend of mine named Amy Erickson. Amy's spirt touched a lot of people including her coworkers at Caribou Coffee, they have been remembering her and honoring her memory by roasting up a special blend of coffee beans that Amy designed herself, they call it Amy's Blend. They sell the coffee during breast caner awareness month as a fund raiser and donate 100,000 dollars towards breast cancer research. Coca Cola generously matches their contribution with an additional 100,000 of their own. Please check out this story at

That is my picture of her holding the cup of coffee. Click on the video to see the story
