I am deeply saddened. We were pretty good friends in high school. Although I haven't seen Eric in many years, I share in everyone's pain. It does bring me comfort to learn of Eric's involvement in AA, he has truly shared a life-giving gift with many.

Eric will be missed, not only as a co-worker, but someone I was able to talk "Las Vegas" with at work. His favorite machines and what he liked to play. His enjoyment of going to visit his parents there was always apparent in his conversations.

My deepest sympathies to all his family in this time of extreme sorrow.
