I am so sorry for your loss Nicola. Eric was a great young man. Our condolences and prayers to Eric's entire family. I am broken, our hearts are heavy. We love you & I am so so sorry this happened. We have alot of great memories of Eric. My son Eugene is heartbroken, Eric & Eugene we're close. Sorry I couldn't make it to the services, my mother is sick with cancer. Again I am sorry we lost a great respectful young man. I remember how polite Eric was. We love you Nicola, stay strong sister. Praying for you all.
