Dearest Family,
Please know that we are with you in spirit as you carry this unimaginable burden. Every superlative I can think of wouldn't adequately describe my dear nephew Eric. He was kind and loving, dedicated , family oriented, and he lived his life with a strong value system and code of ethics. As Mom and Dad taught us "family comes first" and we will always be here for you.

To the Piche Family;
Although Sergeant Piche enlisted in the State Police long after I had retired, I knew him well through his combat service with the NH Army National Guard, while I served as State Chair, for the DOD Employer Support of the Guard and Reserve (ESGR). He was an outstanding trooper and soldier, serving his state and nation in a superlative manner. His love for his family showed clearly, and I hope that your memories of happier times will help you as you move on through your grieving process. Knowing what he has accomplished I hope will give you strength. I know that his memory will live on with his fellow troopers, who will remain steadfast in their support for you. God bless you all !

There are a small number of people who I would trust with my life. Eric was one of them. One of the good guys. A life of selfless service to his friends, family, his state and his country. He had a positive impact on me and so many others.

I'm lucky to have counted him as a friend for over 25 years. He was a fixture in my life throughout high school, college and adulthood. Even though we saw each other less and less as life got busier, I always knew that when I would see him, it would be just like old times. It's hard to believe he's gone, but he gave so much, his memory will be eternal.
