Donnell (Don) Erickson AKA Snowtrac Nome, DDS was a passenger on Bering Air Flight 445 and was a confirmed fatality. He helped many of us with parts, solutions and general expertise in both Snowtracs and Haggulunds BV-206. His full Obit will be posted in 'gone but not forgotten' as soon as it is available.

Our scene is measurably less today with his loss of expertise.

Rest Easy Don

OMG I just talked to him on the phone a week ago! He was just in Nebraska visiting his dad for Christmas.

He was a real trooper and a good friend.

To say he will be missed is an understatement for me. Unbelievable and very sad. He has a Son that I am worried about.
He is of the age that a father can have a huge impact on a son, and he was doing his best to do right by the young man.

I am at a loss for words at this point. :cry:
 
CT,

Thanks for letting us know.

He was one of the forum regulars when I showed up, and he was always helpful in sharing his vast knowledge and experience. I think he helped a fair number of SnowTrac folks with parts as well. I am truly sorry to hear of his passing.

For those of you who knew him, my impression from some of his posts and photos over the years, is that money was pretty tight in his household. Is there something we as a forum can do to show our appreciation for the man, and the respect we have for him? I think that would be meaningful to his family. I would like to contribute.
