Very very sorry for your loss. Eric had a great many friends on the motorcycle forum. Though I never got the chance to meet him, I feel as though I knew him. He shared a passion for the freedom that riding motorcycles brings to many of us. He was a straight shooter, never afraid or embarrassed to speak his mind and share an opinion. His zest for living - and riding, will be missed. Too soon gone. May God Bless.

So very sorry for the loss of your loved one so young, too soon. Please know that God cares for you personally, he 'hears your prayers and sees your tears.' May he comfort you in the weeks and months to come. (2 Kings 20:5 NWT)

I knew Eric from the Honda CB1100 forum on the internet. He posted almost every day and it was always nice to hear his views on that motorcycle or anything in general. We will miss hearing from him. Sorry for your loss!

My heart goes out to you in Eric's death. I have fond memories of his high school days. He had just a hint of mischief in his big beautiful eyes. I pray you will find comfort and peace from the Heavenly Father during these difficult days.
