Family of Warren Standoff Victims Say Thank You for Community's Support

The family of Heidi Errickson, 45, and her brother Frederick Errickson, Jr., 55, the siblings killed by Heidi’s fiance in Warren Township, want to thank the community for their support.

The following is a letter submitted to Patch.com on behalf of the Errickson Family:

Thank you,

In regards to the tragedy that our family endured this past week, we couldn’t be more grateful for all of the wonderful people that showed so much support in our time of need.

After witnessing over 1,700 attendees at the viewing last Friday at Higgins Funeral Home, we knew it was necessary to give prominence to all of those individuals that made such admirable steps towards helping us create successful services, ceremonies, and campaigns.

We’d like to thank Connor Beard for creating the extremely successful GoFundMe for Gabriel Vallies (Heidi Errickson’s Son) college fund and Mark Ramsey who created a GoFundMe for Kim Erricksons (Fred Errickson’s wife) well being fund.

We’d like to thank the Warren Township Police Department, Warren Township School System, Higgins Funeral Home, Country Squire Restaurant, Washington Valley Firehouse, and Warren County florist for being the local communal support that made us understand why Heidi called Warren home her entire life.

We’d like to thank Gary and Dawn Lear for initiating the motorcycle procession for Freddy and Allen Fudger for the breathtaking “releasing of the doves” ceremony. Personal gratitudes to Russel Leffert, Michael Dalton, Roy Debisco, Tammy Boylan Logan, Cara Fiori Conti, Amanda Best, and Kara Errickson, Steven and Susan Brown, and all of the people who gave their condolences and showed their support on Saturday and Sunday.
