Eric you were a stand-up guy. My memories of you are the awesome ways you brought smiles and comfort to everyone including myself. I hadn't seen you in years and you remembered me and spent time catching up with me like it was yesterday. I will always be thankful and miss the kindness and care that you shared with me and others. Eric you are missed truly.
