Eric was a wonderful husband to my cousin, Belinda, an incredible father to Alexander, and a devoted son to Ruth. He set a beautiful example of keeping family relationships as the top priority in his life. His sacrificial love and care were a great example to us all. He will be greatly missed. We will be lifting up all who loved him in prayer, especially Belinda, Alexander, Ruth, Dik and Kelly. May God comfort and bless you as only He can. Laura, Mark and Family

I did not know Eric for long a time but I know a good instructor when I see one and Eric was the best. He was hilarious, kind and patient. He always said he ran on coffee and did mah problems as fast as lightning. He will be greatly missed. My condolences to his family he was a great guy!

Eric was my right hand at BCC/EFSC. When I first started teaching Statistics, my students would rave about what a great tutor he was. I made it a point to meet him and thank him for helping the students through a tough class. For the past 4 years I would tell my students to go to the Math lab and ask for Eric. I considered Eric as my co-teacher and friend, and I will miss him terribly.
