Sunday, June 28th - BBQ Benefit @ Alabama Ice House

Eric and Rosse Memorial Page to benefit their children

Eric and Rosse were killed in a motorcycle accident on June 13, 2009. They were from the Houston area and were in the Austin area for a motorcycle rally. It was during a morning ride that for reasons unknown, Eric lost control of the motorcycle they were both riding. They leave behind two very young children, Johnny (3) and Gina (1). Eric and Rosse were part of the motorcycle I (Myla Van Duyn) belong to. I rode with them that morning, but sadly did not return with them. They did not make a turn and the 9 motorcycles that followed did not see anything and we continued to our next stop. It was there that we realized that Eric and Rosse were not with us and knew that they crashed...but never imagined that they died. It was immediate as far as we know.

Ways you can help:
1. Please consider donating to Rosse's sister's PayPal account (www.paypal.com) at "nellykidrox91@aol.com", it is linked to a donation account (they made it official with the federal government and everything!) that is set up to benefit the children left behind.
2. Share this group with anyone else you know as well.
3. Check back for planned fund raiser events such as BBQ, garage sale, etc.

Thank you!
