Please sign the online guestbook at: www.KalasFuneralHomes.com 

JERUSHA ANN GOMES was born in Chicago, Illinois on February 16, 1969 to Dr. Stella Sookdeo Pla and Dr. Ralph C. Gomes. She departed this life on December 3, 2007 at Georgetown University Hospital after a courageous struggle with a congenital defect in her external carotid artery called an AVM. 

Jerusha, who was affectionately called â€œSashaâ€ by her family and friends, lived in the Metropolitan Washington area for most of her life. When she finished high school, where senior year was spent at Howard University as a HI-SCIP student, she went to Smith College in Northampton, Massachusetts where she earned a B.A. in Psychology and Pre-Med Studies. She later went on to obtain an MBA in Finance from Howard University's School of Business. During her studies, she held internships for the Xerox Corporation in Rochester, NY and for the White House under the Clinton Administration. Upon graduating, she worked as a financial analyst for IBM in White Plains, NY and later for Disney in Orlando, Florida as a senior financial analyst. She returned to the area with her son Julian when her marriage ended and lived with her mother and stepfather, Dr. and Mrs. Raymond Pla in Fort Washington, MD. 

Sasha was a soulful and spiritual person. She loved hip-hop, jazz and gospel music. She was extremely intelligent and many people found this overpowering. She dealt with this through humor by being a practical joker and an extremely giving person. She had a penchant for arguing over articles on the op-ed page of the Washington Post and the Redskins. She had a sunny disposition, and made friends easily. She was a voracious reader, an avid diarist and short story writer. She enjoyed traveling around the world and took many trips and expeditions with her mother and grandmother visiting the Far East, North Africa and the Middle East, Canada and Mexico. 

Sasha was a devoted mother to her young son Julian (age 6) for whom she sacrificed much and worked hard as a single parent to keep him engaged in soccer, violin lessons, in Catholic education at St. Columba and to instill in him the importance of God in his life. She was a very loving and involved parent. In addition to her son, Julian, Sasha is survived by her parents, Dr. Stella Sookdeo Pla & Dr. Raymond A. Pla, and Dr. Ralph C. Gomes, by her four brothers, R. Christopher Gomes, Jr., R. Alexander Gomes, Dr. Raymond A. Pla, Jr., Richard Samad, by her grand-parents, Mrs. Haleema Rahim and Mr. Stephen Pla, Sr., and by aunts, uncles, cousins, nieces, nephews and a host of other family and friends. 

Sasha will be remembered for her intensity and giving ways. She will be deeply missed by all who knew her, but her love of family and her devotion to doing God's work will linger.

Retired Navy Capt. Frederick Leif Eareckson, naval architect and sailboat enthusiast, died at the Ginger Cove Health Center on Nov. 29. He was 83. 


Capt. Eareckson was born April 14, 1924, in Baltimore. He graduated from the Baltimore Polytechnic Institute in 1941 and adjusted magnetic compasses on ships leaving Baltimore during World War II. He received his officer's commission through the NROTC program, graduating from the University of Michigan in 1948 with a naval architecture degree. He served on destroyers, first in the Mediterranean and later in Korea. For his actions as main battery officer aboard USS James C. Owens, he was awarded the Navy Commendation Medal with Combat Distinguished Device. 


In 1956 he earned a master's degree in naval architecture from the Webb Institute. After attending submarine school and while assigned to the USS Clamagore, he participated in one of the first surveillance patrols of a Soviet naval base by a U.S. submarine. He was a ship superintendent at the Charleston Naval Shipyard, and completed tours at Supervisor of Shipbuilding and Commander Submarine Force Atlantic, Groton, Conn., and the Bureau of Ships, Washington, D.C., in support of the strategic program to design, construct and deploy nuclear ballistic missile submarines. In 1969 he reported to the Norfolk Naval Shipyard as planning officer, and headed the Ship Design Department at the Naval Ship Engineering Center, Hyattsville, before retiring from the Navy in 1975. 


Capt. Eareckson later worked as an engineering project manager for M. Rosenblatt and Son. He helped organize several Chesapeake Sailing Yacht Symposia, serving once as chairman. He put in countless hours as a volunteer at St. Anne's Episcopal Church, including work on Parish House restoration projects and service as a vestry member. He was active in many historical, military and technical organizations. 


With a love for the Chesapeake Bay that lasted throughout his life, he built his first sailboat as a teenager, and owned and raced a Hampton 18 one-design and then a Tartan 27. His Chance 30 Windemere won three high point trophies over a span of 25 years of active racing and was a fixture at virtually every local racing and cruising event. He chaired the membership committee of the Chesapeake Bay Yacht Racing Association for over 20 years and remained a member of the Annapolis Yacht Club for 63 years. 


A descendant of Swedish settler Johan Ericksson who arrived on Kent Island in 1652, Capt. Eareckson is survived by his wife of 57 years, the former Jean Lee Van Leeuwen; two sons, Frederick Leif Eareckson III of Millersville and Peter Dudley Eareckson of Reston, Va.; one daughter, Lee Anne Eareckson of Viola, Idaho; and three grandchildren.
