How to watch Erik Esselstyn's memorial service online

Can't make it to East Montpelier at 2:00 this coming Saturday (Feb 3, 2024) for Erik's remembrance service? Here's how you can tune in and attend the service virtually.

The Old Meeting House will provide a webcast on their YouTube channel at https://www.youtube.com/@oldmeetinghouse1564/streams.

If you go to the site before 2pm the video might not be available to click on in advance. You may need to refresh the page as it gets closer to the beginning of the service.

[Update!] Here is the program for the service so that people viewing from afar can follow along if desired. For those who aren't adept with switching back and forth between tabs and/or windows on the computer, it might be helpful to load the program in advance and print it out. =)

Most of the following text is redundant (I'm basically adding some more words so that people searching using other keywords will be more likely to be able to find it). The way to view Erik Esselstyn's funeral, or celebration of life, remotely is not by using Zoom. It will be streamed/streaming at this page.

    I helped Erik and Micki with IT work at their home in Gainesville, FL, when I was just a kid learning about the Internet, i can't remember how i met them. They were always so nice to me and made me feel like a million dollars; I remember them both being "super" healthy with all types of homeopathic things and spices and having an abundance of healthy items around the house. He made me laugh and, honestly, was probably the first client I ever had. Over the years, I have thought about Erik now and then and just now i have come across his obituary; he certainly had a life well lived. His memories will live on. Will miss my buddy in an odd way, even though I haven't seen him since I was little. Rest in peace, Erik. Your friend Tommy.

Erik Esselstyn obituary

Dad/Erik's obituary was published in the Montpelier paper and on their website , but their page evidently isn't visible to people in some other countries. Also, the online version combines all the paragraphs into one, and it's not clear how long it will stay available. Hence, it seemed to make sense to publish it here as well. NORTH MONTPELIER — Erik C. Esselstyn, 86, died Dec. 23, 2023, at Central Vermont Medical Center with family by his side. He had been diagnosed with stage 4 metastatic prostate cancer less than three months before his death.     An inquisitive, thoughtful, and caring man, capable of both gentleness and tenacity, Erik led a life of many distinct chapters, with variety in professional roles, intellectual pursuits, and geographic location. His commitment to deeply connecting with people means that, in addition to kin from his birth family and from two long marriages, he leaves behind a multitude of close friends.     Born Apr. 7, 1937, in New York ...

1981 video profile of Erik on HealthBeat TV show

Image
This  9-minute video  is an excerpt from a TV show out of Boston that profiled Dad/Erik and his unexpected recovery from his (first) bout with cancer. In addition to the inspiring message from an underdog success and the fun of seeing him at age 44 (about half the age he was when he died), you might get pleasure from the 1981 fashion choices and plaid earthtone kitchen wall-to-wall carpeting. I still have—and wear—the timeless plaid wool shirt he's wearing in the frame shown here. Enjoy! -Blake
