This past Wednesday Erica Blasberg, LPGA golfer, was laid to rest after her mysterious and sudden death. "Family members, friends and LPGA
golfers praised Blasberg in person and on video during the service at
Eagle Glen Golf Club in Corona where she played as a high school
athlete. Two golf bags stitched with her name stood by her silver
coffin." - CBSSportsline
People spoke about her as a player and also about her great personality.
"Blasberg had her bags packed for
a tournament in Alabama when she died suddenly on May 9 at her home in
Henderson, Nev., about 15 miles southeast of Las Vegas. The cause of
her death has not been stated pending blood and tissue tests that could
take a month or more to complete. Police have not said whether they
suspect foul play but have not ruled out any cause, including suicide... Friend and longtime LPGA player
Irene Cho presented her parents with a flag signed by golf tour
contestants that came from Blasberg's last tournament in Mexico." - CBSSportsline
Many others spoke at what was said to be a very emotional time. Her mother Debbie spoke about a text message she sent Erica shortly before she received the news that stated "How's everything?" Debbie "urged the attendees to
remember their own children, saying that even if their children were
only leaving to go to the next room, "just tell them you love them
because you don't know the next time you're going to see them." - CBSSportsline.
May Erica's memory be for a blessing.
And Let Us Say...Amen.
