Bonnie and Family,
I am very sorry for your loss. Eric was a classmate at West, a fellow veteran, and a kindred soul who refused convention and chose a Road Less Traveled.
Was looking forward to seeing him again at our 50th HS Reunion this coming August ... at least he no longer feels pain or sickness, having been freed of all that.
My deepest condolences to your and yours.

Very sorry to hear of Rick's passing. We were friends from high school many years ago, and played rec. league basketball together for several years. Rick was a good guy, and a good friend. My sincere condolences to his family.
