Relieve the burden of Eric’s funeral expenses

Eric James was sadly taken away from us on Thursday, February 27, 2020. Eric was loved dearly by many friends and family. In the short 18 years of Eric’s life he touched many hearts ,created lasting memories and will always be remembered for his unforgettable smile.

Eric’s life as a young man was just beginning.  Eric loved spending time with friends . He also loved the mummers and played the alto sax with the Broomall String Band for many years. Never would Kent and Lauren had imagined having to bury their firstborn son. His older sister, Lexi , is doing such an amazing at job staying  strong for her two younger brothers, Tayten and JJ, plus mom and dad as they mourn the loss of Eric. This type of pain is just not fair. Many family members and friends hearts will be forever changed with the loss of someone so special. Whether Eric knew you his whole life or just met you yesterday, his big strong hug and contagious smile would brighten your day instantly .


The unexpected loss of Eric has been unbearably difficult. As we prepare for Eric’s new peaceful journey into heaven, many have asked how they can help. Along with continued prayer for the family, you can help by donating to Eric’s funeral expenses. Any little bit you can give goes a long way. Please help to provide peace and healing for Eric’s family during a time of great suffering.



Please remember that in the blink of an eye, everything can change. So forgive often and LOVE WITH ALL OF YOUR HEART. You may never know when you may not have that chance again.

Eric James, when your beautiful heart stopped beating, many hearts broke into two.  Knowing that here on earth, there will never be another like you. We love you beyond our universe and will miss you beyond words can describe. May you keep smiling and rest in forever peace.


Thank you kindly in advance for your donation to Eric’s funeral expenses. I would also like to extend my gratitude for your kind words and moral support to the Tavener family.
