Watervliet - Erin E. Harris, 39, Beloved, loving and faithful Child of God, was called home to Heaven Palm Sunday.
The world lost a little light, but has a new shining Angel who brightens the heavens and sends her light from there. Erin leaves a legacy of unconditional love and acceptance for anyone gifted with crossing her peaceful path, an example of untold courage and strength, kindness and joy which she shared throughout her life. She never wavered or faded through her battle with rare cancer.
Erin leaves behind her mother Lucy Turnbull, father Stephen LaPoint, devoted fiancé Philip Holmes, her son Hugh Tausig-Lux, sisters Shannon Turnbull, Breanna Stengle, Amanda LaPoint, Mary Rose LaPoint, brothers Caleb and Joshua LaPoint, loving stepmoms Elizabeth LaPoint and Cynthia LaPoint, as well as many treasured Aunts, Uncles, cousins, friends and fellow warriors.
Lastly, one small favor I ask of thee, please be more like me, especially my family, or in that, I live on in each of you while I and a host of angels from above watch over.
In lieu of flowers, please make donations in Erin's name to Leiomyosarcoma Support and Direct Research Foundation, or Community Hospice Albany.
