Our hearts and prayers go out to you and the family. We watched the viewing and later the service. It was a very nice gathering of family and friends and a nice send off for Erik. We are sorry that we could not be there. Distance and events have kept us apart all these years. Billy said it right, a close family means everything. God Bless you all. Love from Cousin Noel & Carol

Andrea, Chris and Brianna,
There are no words that can fully convey how truly sorry I am for this senseless loss. I feel so fortunate to have gotten to know Erik over the years. Chris and I often filled the house with loud music, and he was nothing but supportive. I’ll never forget his infectious smile, kind heart, and the love he had for all of you. He will be missed deeply, but he will live forever through the memories and enormous impact he had on you and all those who knew him. I’m always here for your family, just as you have always welcomed me into yours.
Love you all,
Brandon

So many fond memories of Cousin Erik growing up on Long Island. We were always a very close family and celebrated many beautiful fun filled holidays together from the 1950’s-2017. He will be so dearly missed. My heartfelt sympathy goes out to the family there. I will plant here a Ginkgo tree in honor of him. I hope to visit you all next June. Peace be with you all! Blessings & Love, cousin Karen Molin-Brown & Larry Funicello

I am so sorry for your loss. I always will remember talking sports with Erik, his excitement over things that had happened in my life but most importantly — his enormous smile. He was a kind man with a good heart and there is no better way to be remembered than that. Much love and good energy to you all.

My fondest memory was having Erik come watch my game in the bronx. He taught me the rules of baseball and in return I taught him the rules of hurling. Erik, Andrea and Brianna made the journey to Gaelic Park to come and support and we had a bit of craic over a few beers after. I'll never forget this night as he brought us good luck, we won that night! Rest in peace Erik, a true gentleman and one of a kind.
With love from Ireland.

Dear Andrea, Chris and Brianna,
Words cannot express how heartbroken we are over losing our cousin and friend. We shared so many great times and memories - Playing ball for Jade East, best man at his wedding, Ormond Street block parties, working together at Janvey’s, going to Met games and St. John’s games, traveling together, boating and fishing and him catching all the fish, listening to bands, playing horseshoes together which he loved to beat me, him going to my Friends Academy Basketball games, all our family parties, and so much more. Erik was truly a Renaissance man who could do everything and always had the right tool for the project. Erik will forever be in our hearts.
Love Billy and Vickie

I have only known Erik for about 4 months since we hired him as a Sales Rep for my company, but he made a strong impact on me and my team. I was very much looking forward to working with him, and I can not say how devastated we all are at NDC. My heart goes out to the his family.

May the Lord welcome Erik into Heaven where he will find peace with his Dad Sven. May the Lord look over him for eternity and the Family through this tough time. May his soul live on in our hearts & memories. I am so sorry for his loss. I miss him and the rest of the Family up in New York. Living in Florida; the last time I got to see everyone was back for Aunt Elsie's wake (traveling with my Dad- Arthur Molin -rip & Uncle Noel). I wish I could make it up there this time. My hart and prayers go out to everyone. Erik has made an impact to each of our lives. May this memory I hold dear to me help comfort each of us as we know Erik will live on in each of us.
I remember back as a young kid, Erik took me on my 1st boat ride. Wow, he took that boat as fast as it could go! I was thrilled. Erik being 11 years older than me, I looked up to him as a really cool cousin and I couldn't wait to be old enough to get my own boat one day. I was 15 when I moved with my Dad to FL and the 1st thing I did after getting a job was save up enough money to buy my 1st boat. Thanks to my experiences with Erik I now have a problem collecting boats- I think I'm up over 7 or more laying around here somewhere. Looking back, I cherish all the good family times we had and gatherings at the beach house. Remembering the funny things Erik would say or come up with. (I will miss you Cuz. You have been an inspiration to my life).
