I am so shocked and upset to read about this tragedy. I was a mentor and friend of Phan Trieu when she was a resident in Brooklyn NY and I know how happy she was to be married to Eric. My heart is pained to think of the two of them gone from this earth. I am so sorry for the family. Sincerely, Ron Guberman DPM

Mr & Mrs. Street - I did not know Eric personally. I knew him through Dr. Trieu-Street. As a patient over the past 5 years I shared many stories with her. She loved Eric very much. We can't always understand why things happen the way they do, but I have been so saddened about Eric and Trieu-Street. I saw her on the day before this happened and she seemed as happy as usual. You have my prayers and my sympathy. A patient of Dr. Tieu-Street's. Mrs. Fisher

Our thoughts and prayers are with your family, Eddie and Joy, in this time of tragic loss. Eric brought such a sweet smile, kindness, and compassion to my mother, Agnes, during the last family reunion. Mama spoke highly of his sweetness as she was able mingle and chat with him. I'm grateful Eric brought his lovely wife to the reunion in Ohio to meet his family. May Eric rest in peace and may his family always have fond memories.

My deepest sympathies to the Street Family. Eric was a wonderful person and a natural leader. I will never forget in the 5th grade him coming to school with his freshly cut flat top hair cut with a Nike Swoosh shaved in the back the next day all the boys showed up with the exact same hair cut.

Street was so far ahead of his time. He taught me so much as a young boy to young man. He was everyone's best friend. He had your back no matter what the situation was. There wasn't a group of friends where he didn't belong. He is a stud! I know he is in a better place with his wife now. Knowing him as a young boy and man was a privilege and a honor. Thank you God for letting him be a part of my life. Definitely will never forget you Street!
