Not sure what to say?

Eric brought so much kindness and compassion to Mayflower Church during his time there. He was always warm and positive and easy to love. He will be so missed.

What an honor to be in Gods army with such a wonderful servant. Hold on to Gods promises.

I was blessed by knowing him through my time at Degage. You could always feel God´s presence with him. A rare and remarkable man of God. Bob Kreter

I served with Eric for several years as chaplains at Porter Hills. He was a wonderful spiritual mentor and friend to me and so many others. Eric was a person who was filled with so many of the Fruits of the Spirit; kindness, goodness, faithfulness, patience, long suffering, meekness, self-control. I rejoice that he has gone onto Glory and now lives in the presence of his Lord and Savior. Rev. Nancy Claus

Thank you for your service Sir

Eric was a very special and wonderful man. So sincere and so kind. May perpetual light shine upon him. He´s earned his reward.

I met Eric, when I joined the Salvation Army Advisory Board in Grand Rapids. I attended a National Conference with him in Dallas, TX, and quickly discovered he was a "ROCK STAR". Everyone seemed to know him and was so happy to see him. I remember lots of hugs and prayers. I knew I had to get to know this guy! He welcomed me and was genuinely concerned about me and wanted me to be a successful board member. Always a smile, always an encouraging word, he was someone I always looked...

It is sad to learn of Eric´s passing. He touched so many lives and made the world a better place. I will be forever grateful for his foresight in establishing the Men´s Bible Study groups at Mayflower Congregational Church.
