Dear cousin Susan,
I know how painful the anniversary of Eric's passing can be for I share this exact grief over losing my dear Debbie back in 2015. I wish I could say that it gets easier. But it doesn't when losing your child. However, the love and support of family and friends does ease the pain. I am thinking of you at this time. And I hope you continue to try to build happiness back in your life. Love, Cousin Janis

I miss you more than words can say

December 2, 2012

My dearest, precious nephew...two months have passed since we lost you. Each day gets more difficult, if that is even possible. Without you, our family has a huge void, and can never be the same....it can never be whole again. This senseless tragedy has left two babies without their daddy, grieving parents without their son, a beautiful fiancee without her future husband, grandparents without their grandson, aunts and uncles without their nephew, many cousins and many friends without their best friend. You were a gentle soul, a caring, strong, loving person, who brought so much joy and happiness to everyone who ever knew you. You did not deserve this tragic ending at the age of 27. Your babies now have to grow up without their daddy. It is now our mission to make sure that your babies are always taken care of. You will always live on in our hearts, and someday we will all be together again my sweet precious Eric. I know that you and mom-mom are together and taking care of each other. My heart aches each and every moment of each and every day. You were always our hero, and now you are also our guardian angel in heaven. Until we meet again....Love you for eternity...Aunt Wendy

Dear Susan and Michael,

It is with the most sincerest of feeling that we send condolences to you and the family upon the loss of your beloved son, Eric. We are all shocked in Maryland and cannot believe this tragic loss that has befallen upon your family. To say we are so sorry does not begin to convey the sadness we feel for you . Please know that your Baltimore family (and Mount Airy, MD family) are with you in thought and spirit today.
With love,
Cousin Janis (and Jeff) Polt Goldman

When someone we love passes away,
We ache, but we go on;
Our dear departed would want us to heal,
After they are gone.
Grief is a normal way to mend
The anguish and pain in our hearts;
We need time to remember and time to mourn,
Before the recovery starts.
Let's draw together to recuperate,
As we go through this period of sorrow;
Let's help each other, with tender care
To find a brighter tomorrow.

Rest in Peace, Eric. We have never had to say that about someone who had so much of his life left to live; someone whose living life was peaceful. You are a great soul and your presence easily warmed the rooms and lives you entered. Our thoughts go out to Aileen and their young children, Eric's entire family and his long list of friends.

Dear Hammer Family:
Words cannot heal your heart at this time. But find comfort in knowing your son, brother, friend, father of 2, was a man that touched many hearts and lives. I met Eric once,maybe twice, he was friend to Billy H. (our neighbor's grandson). Many people are devastated by this senseless loss. May you know that many people are there for you for support and love. He will always be with you in your heart and may memories help heal you at this time. We will be thinking and praying for you, as well.
With Heartfelt Sympathy,
Sandra, Tom and Ryan Fedeli
