After Erik's passing, his four beautiful daughter all with their different hair colors and vocal ranges took over the park together. (Erik had trained them all relentlessly and it was obvious by their talent). They were all married and all had given Erik grandchildren. However, despite being mothers, they wanted to continue the park and their father's legacy so they agreed to work together to keep it running. 

Arietta was an image of her Meg on the stage. She had so much personality and was theatrical. Her chestnut curls bounced as she danced across the stage. Her dancing was incredible and she had a strong, belty voice too. She became the new Meg Giry of the Ooh Lah Lah Girls. 

Aria had a beautiful contralto voice that warbled all over the place. She sang in all of the bars at Phantasma frequently and eventually went on a world tour.  Erik loved listening to her sing most of all while playing piano to accompany her. Aria Destler was world famous.

Cadenza was Erik's pride and joy vocally. He loved all of his girls and helped them develop their voices equally, but Cadenza's voice rivaled Christine's. Since Erik began practicing with her at a young age, she developed an even stronger voice than Christine. Cadenza was a beautiful soprano and starred in many of the operas at Phantasma. 

Finally, there was Erik's baby, Melody. Her voice was so unique and unusual. She put on concerts at Phantasma often. Melody had also picked up piano with her father's training. She enjoyed singing, but her true talent was on piano. 

In his honor, a large plaque was installed at his grave reading, "Here lies Erik Destler also known as Mr. Y. He was a beloved husband, father, grandfather, uncle, friend, and manager. He was the most noble man to set foot on Coney Island and will be truly missed by all."
