Worked with Eric for the better part of my time at the Seventh Police District. Evening shift. The back-bone of 7D.
I later became his immediate supervisor from 2012-2016. We shared a lot of memories. And laughs.
Eric; and his peers, made me a better supervisor and person.
He always had stories of the OLD Sgt Hart for the young officers. Very dependable and will be sorely missed.
Eric was VERY knowledgeable and well-liked and respected by all who knew him.
Ill be praying for his family during their time of bereavement
