Eric A. Nelson

I'm so sorry to read that Eric had passed away. We were very good friends when he was at Santa Cruz High School, and I was sorry when he left. Our fathers were both administrators there at the same time, but I attended a different high school. I've been trying to find him for years. He was a highlight of my high school days, and always the funniest guy in the room. I lost track of him in 1978, when life got busy. I'm happy to hear he was blessed with a loving wife and a couple of...

Eric came to join us at Fitchburg High School (Massachusetts) for his senior year. He was the fun-loving, outgoing, long-haired California beach boy from Santa Cruz, the son of our new Principal. Eric was friendly and fit right in! The next year he and I both went to UMass Amherst and had fun freshmen times on the big campus. With 25,000 students we lost touch, and I found his obituary last summer while trying to locate former classmates for our upcoming 50th FHS Class Reunion this year. ...

Very sad to hear of Eric's passing. My parents had a camp on Pequawket in the same cove as his grandmother Rachel. Knew Eric and his cousin Dave White very well. Had some fun times on that lake! My sympathies to you all.

So sorry to hear. I was proud to work with and for him at Westmass, he inspired me and others. He was so great at communicating and creating a positive vision for the public good. A true professional and a gentleman.

Nobody better.

So lucky and proud to have had Eric, Peggy, Aaron, and Sam in our lives and, not so incidentally, shared three World Series championships in our shared slice of Ashfield.

It was a pleasure to have known & worked with Eric on the Ludlow Mill #10 renovation. He had a passion for the historical site and its buildings. He was instrumental in its re-development. Deepest sympathies to the entire family.

Peggy,
I'm so sorry to learn of Eric's tasing. He always struck me as a very warm and kind-hearted person. My sincere condolences.

Peggy & Family,
I am so sorry to hear of your husband's passing. Love can not die, memories never can be erased, and one's passing is not always understood. May your beloved Husband,father, and best friend rest peacefully and the Lord's gentle and caring hands. With sorrow, Joseph J. Nowak, Adams,MA
