My name is Erika German and I am an artist, photographer, model, and athlete. I have been an artist for my entire life. I am now into every aspect of art I can be invovled in and work with as many mediums as possible. I would do anything to work for board companies one day designing boards, shirts, hats, etc. Rest in Peace started out in honor of professional snowboarder Jeff Anderson when he tradgically passed away in 2004. Since then we have lost other pro riders and I have had some personal losses to my home town snowboarding family as well. This site is kept going for their memory. It's not goodbye, just see you later. REST IN PEACE... Jeff Anderson 1979 - 2004 Josh Malay 1981 - 2004 Ryan Glenny 1990 - 2007. One of the most down to earth kids I've ever known. I had classes with him in High School and rode with him when I went snowboarding. He always came into my art classes and threw ideas at me. He is truely an inspiration. He passed away December 21st, 2007 at the age of 17 from cancer. It was a shock and I'm still coping with his death. The day after he died I went and got my first tattoo so I will always remember him. He is missed greatly and never forgotten. Rest in Peace lil' bro. Byron Callahan 1987 - 2006. Always had the best campfire stories and a great person to adventure with. Sorry that I couldn't have helped you out more man. You are truely missed. Ben Pickett 1988 - 2008. A kid I grew up with who was murdered May 17, 2008. You are in all our hearts. I remember babysitting his lil sis and going horsebacking riding at Yonnalassee with him. When I was working at the stables cleaning out stales at summer camp, Ben always kept a smile on my face and helped out with everything.
