MEET ERIK
An older brother, a son, an entertainer, a hugger, and an inspiration. Erik taught patience and empathy. He showed the importance of understanding the lives of those that are different from your own. He opened Anya’s world to a community of incredible, hard working, selfless individuals. He was a huge part of her life, and still is. Erik had Rubinstein-Taybi syndrome and Autism. He tragically passed away on November 14th, 2016, at the young age of 26. 4 years later, Anya is now 27, and Of Those You Love was born. Through this project, we honor Erik’s life by continuing his legacy here on earth.
