Not sure what to say?

He was a great man, always sharing memories, bonds, and his abundance of wisdom. Erick was a great man and he will undoubtedly be missed by all. One thing that Erick did that I will never forget is that he would look at families that weren't doing the best financially and he would offer a free treat. When people would respond with "You don't have to" Erick would reply "I know the owner " Erick was of course the owner. Erick was often going out of his way to spread positivity and make As many...

His bakery is second to none it has stood for many years and hopefully will stand for many more years ! My first visit was in 1968 my last visit was in 1971 hopefully nothing will ever change !

MY condolences to the family. What a legacy to leave behind. A yearly stop.

I was employed by Eric and Dan during my high school years, I have very fond memories of the Schat Family and the fun we had during roll promotions. My condolences go out to the Family. He will be missed. Aubrey Moody

My family has gone to Bridgeport for over 55 years. We would stop at Schat's Bakery every year. Best Bakery I have ever been to. My condolences go to his family.

Farewell my dearest friend. I was always in awe of your ability to creatively think outside the box and produce wonderous things. I will always cherish the memories of riding the bulldozer and drinking wine in Chalfant. We had such fun and you will be greatly missed by all. My heart will always be with you. Love, Diana

I met Erik at his Bakery and he was a very sweet man. I just went by there today looking for him to say hello and found out about his passing. I'm so happy I got to meet him and God bless his soul!

My sympathy goes to his family & coworkers. My family started to go camping every summer in Bridgeport, California since 1962 to present. We would stop @ Schat's Bakery every year. I love the cheese breads, chocolate covered macaroon cookies & pastries.

It was a sad day when I heard this last week from his ex wife. My sincere condolences to the family he left behind, and to his employees, who will surely miss him. It was heartwarming though to read this thoughtful tribute to his life. Spot on! l hold him dear in my heart, rest easy lieve vriend.
