On Friday, Oct. 27, Father Robert Erickson, a longtime priest of the Diocese, was called to eternal rest. He was 85 years old. Fr. Erickson was ordained in the Diocese of San Diego in 1958 and ministered in eight different parishes of the Diocese of San Bernardino. He served as pastor of Christ the Good Shepherd, St. Mel, St. Margaret Mary, St. Catherine of Alexandria (Riverside) and Our Lady of the Lake parishes. He also served as a Director of Catholic Charities and continued to serve as a judge in the Diocesan Tribunal during his retirement. Funeral arrangements are pending. “Eternal rest, grant unto him O Lord, and let perpetual light shine upon him.”
