So, sorry for your loss. Eric was a great mentor as I started my career with John Deere. He passed along knowledge and skills that have allowed me to get to where I am today.

Paul and I only met Eric a few times, but as long time friends of his sister Ruth, we know how much he meant to her and his other sisters. We are deeply saddened by his death at far too early an age. Our deepest condolences to all Eric's family.

I send my prayers and thoughts of a life well lived. He was part of the United Church of Christ family in Midland and our family was in the same church for 37 years. He had a great life in Midland and we celebrate that journey. Jim Stout Chicago

I remember Eric as one of the liitle kids some sixty years ago. That was a long, long time ago; not, though, long enough ago for us his family to be ready for him to go now.
