Support Erik Andren's Family After Tragedy
Donation protected
Beloved father, husband and dear friend Erik Andren unfortunately passed away this past Saturday December 14, 2024. A dedicated martial artist and federal agent, Erik had unfortunately been suffering from nocardiosis; an infection that attacked his spinal cord. This infection left him very weak and contributed to the accident that sadly took his life. Erik is survived by his beloved wife Annie and two daughters Annika and Olivia.
Those fortunate enough to spend time around Erik would often hear stories about his family; radiating warmth and pride as he would update us on how his daughters are doing. In addition to being a devoted father, Erik was a staple of our local martial arts community. His enthusiasm for Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu and his eager energy to help any newcomers spread to everyone in the gym. He was a constant source of encouragement and positivity for everyone who was fortunate enough to share the mats with him.
We created this GoFundMe because many people in the Precision MMA community have asked if there is any way that they can lend support or contribute to Eriks family. All funds raised will be given directly to the Andren family.
Erik will be sorely missed, but we know that his spirit will be kept alive through his family and the beautiful memories that he shared with so many of us.
