Not sure what to say?

I can't believe it's been 8 years - I still miss him and think of him. Love you, Eric - always will!

He is definitely missed!!!

To the many friends and family who offered their condolences to me after the loss of my brother Eric - I say "Thank You". It is hard to believe it has been a year since we lost Eric. My what a difficult year. He will always be in my heart and I miss him terribly. Many times this past year I have nearly tried to call his cell phone to talk to him. You folks are right about him being a good listener, compassionate about friends, family and animals and he always had such insight and wisdom....

Deb, you probably don't remember me but I worked at Wyota with your mom for years. I had no idea you had lost her, and now Eric too. I'm so sorry. I loved your family. They were all wonderful, funny, loving people. My heart goes out to you.

Eric-You will be missed! I was saddened when I heard the news. My wife and I were introduced to Eric many years ago when we bought and sold houses through his real estate practice, and we became friends staying in touch even after our move to Chicago. My condolences to the family and close friends. what a great guy and inspiration to all he came in contact with. I will always remember his smile and sense of humor.

Goodbye, Eric. I'm so sad to hear that you've passed. We had some good times back in the day and I'll always remember when you contacted me to go to lunch. Thanks for that. I'll never forget your laugh or your love of animals. I hope you have peace, my friend.

Eric was such a good friend back in Garden City. We had so much fun and so many great stories are coming back to me. He was such a neat guy. My prayers go out to the family.

I got to know eric as a grasspad customer. He was very helpful and always friendly. He will be missed.

My high-school memories of Eric...English class with Mr. Cox. He sat behind me. What a sense of humor and quick wit he had...always cracking us up. He was a great guy. I am sure that he kept that same upbeat and friendly personality throughout his short life.
