Eric was the guy who you always wanted around. Through his smile and personality alone, he could have moved mountains. The memories i have of him will last forever and i will try to better myself through his words of wisdom. Eric and i meet through his good buddy Randi in early 2000. He use to always want to play some kind of sport everyday. He and Dillon started playing softball w/ me in 2006. The name of the team was "EEZY GOIN" i put him @ short stop and well..... i moved him to 1st base. lol:) and he was a star. That whole team was all about friends,fun and making memories. that season held the best memories of Eric that i will never let fade. because of his talent on the field we went 7and1 and were the champions of the whole league. I just wanted extend my help and condulences to his whole family. Jeff and Bonnie if you ever need help w/ anything PLEASE just let me know

I got the call early on wens. morning informing me of the news. I still haven't let this loss fully sink in, and i don't know if i'll really ever be able to. Even though I haven't seen Eric in years I still remember spending time with Eric when we were little. My best memory would have to be swimming in grandma annabelle's pool in lansing with him. I know that he's watching over me though. I love you and miss you Eric. Aunt Bonnie,uncle Jeff and Andria you guys are in my thoughts and prayers.

This is Debra Moore (Ashley Ndukwu's mother). I remember Ashley and Eric playing together as young adults and always thought he was such a sweet boy. I was shocked when I heard the news of your sweet baby boy.

There is no bond as great as that between a child and a parent. Our deepest condolences are with you and your family as you grieve this great loss. Please let me know if there is anything I can do to help you and your family.

Peace & Love,

I would like to express my condolences to the family and friends of Eric Schubert. These can be difficult times, especially in the passing of one so young, however, much comfort can be found in God's Word the Bible with such scriptures as Eccl.9:11, Isa.25:8, and Ps.37:29.

I am so sorry for your loss.

You did an amazing job in Eric. He has left an everlasting impression on the hearts of so many, even those who knew him for only a short while. He will be missed but will forever remain in our hearts.
To Eric,
Thanks for making prom and graduation so much fun. I will never forget our Memorial Day trip to the lake before it was even warm enough to get in, but boy were we determined to do it. And thanks for making Laura and me go on that mudding trip; even though we got stuck it was an experience that I will never forget!
I'll see you on the other side!
