In addition to holding licenses in social work and mortuary science, I am a hospice volunteer. Any information, consultation or referral that I provide is free of charge; however, I am currently unavailable to provide hands-on care and I am not on-call.
I have attended trainings by Final Passages and Crossings, and assisted in presenting information for the Crossings’ workshop. I attended the Natural Death Center’s Green Burial Conference in England and the FCA’s biennial conference in Seattle. I have presented material regarding green burial and home/family-led funerals for a number of groups in the Ann Arbor, MI, area over the course of the last three years, and I have consulted with families interested in alternatives to the conventional funeral.
I provided a presentation for continuing education credits for social workers and nurses at the University of Michigan, and I have close personal ties to A Sacred Moment, the Funeral Consumer’s Alliance and Funeral Consumer Information Society of Detroit, and the Green Burial Council.

Erika is extremely knowledgeable about Michigan laws and is very supportive in enabling families to care for their own dead.
