Eric J. Berry

To the Berry family, Eric was a wonderful friend & a great father! He will be dearly missed by myself and all who knew him. My prayers go out to your family, especially his two beautiful daughters.

Mr.and Mrs.Berry, I'm very sorry for your loss. I know nothing anyone says can even ease any of your pain! You have always been in my prayers ever since I've met you. You two were like my other parents! I remember when I would sleep over, Paul and I would plan how we were gonna mess with Eric the next morning before he woke up!

We only just met a short time ago,but a good person and goodhearted he was. We wish we had the time to know him better. Our Prayers for all the people he loved and those who loved him. He made many people smile. May he smile on them now.

Eric will be greatly missed and I will never ever forget that little smirk of his. I...

Eric's competitive drive and great sense of humor made our baseball team a success. In many ways, Eric was the most important player on a team that changed the fortunes of Gateway baseball. I still share stories with my current players about Eric. He embodied so many qualities that create success in an individual and a team. His competitive drive, athleticism, and inimitable smile will always be with me. Do know that Eric still lives on today as I share his passion with my current...
