I was saddened to hear of Erling's passing. He was a kind man, always smiling and would greet me when I visited my mom across the hall. Condolences to his family. May he rest in peace.

May he rest peacefully.
My condolences to the family.
I am so very sorry to hear of your loss. I use to visit him and his wife with Britta. We always had to sit down and have some coffee and food during our visits. He was a sweet man and I am glad I had the chance to meet him and his wife.
