So sorry to hear of your loss. Though it's been 22 years since I have had contact with Eric, someone like him is never forgotten. Fun to be around, accepting of everyone, and always with a smile...he touched more lives than will ever be known.

Thoughts and prayers to Eric's family. I found out about his passing through a mutual classmate in Minnesota. I had no idea he had moved so near my adopted home of the last 26 years. Eric had a great sense of humor and an infectious, impish smile.
