Erik was amazing, he was so precious with kids at Mitzi Bond, and there is a void without him. He was a "gentle-man" and loved by children and adults. His cheerful disposition lit up a room. Heartfelt sympathy goes out to his wife and children, as his presence will be missed, you are in our prayers. God Bless Erik.

Eric was always ready with a smile and a kind word. He had a way of turning a bad day into a good one, and he was tough under pressure. I will miss him. My deepest condolences to his family.
