Dear Douglas, So difficult to bare. Thought, prayers and love with you from me. Pinky Laffoon

Please except my deepest sympathies to you and your family at this time of grieving. May God bless you and your family in this time of sorrow.

My deep condolences to the Wu family. I just read about Eric in the Brown Daily Herald and I am saddened that Brown and the world has lost such an exceptional and kind human being. I hope you find solace in the fact that Eric had a positive impact on so many others during his short but substantial lives. My prayers are with you.

Doug and Hope, Greg and I just learned this tragic news last night. We send prayers and love to your family. Best, Victoria Reese and Greg Kennedy

To the parents of Frederick Wu, I’m so sorry this tragedy happened to your child. He appeared to have a lot of potential and gifts to share with the world. I drive by the accident location daily and think of him as I do. He will never be forgotten by me. May you one day find the peace you deserve.

Please except my deepest sympathies as the days and weeks pass, and as you return to life's routine, may you continue to feel comforted by the love and support of God, family and friends.

Eric was a great human being and I enjoyed working with him when he was at Phillips Academy and in my dorm there as a 10th grader. I’ll miss not seeing his story unfold ; it was sure to be a rich and substantial one. Sending peace to his whole family.
