My condolences to Mel and his family. I didn't know Eric, but I know Mel from Milwaukee Sketch Club. I'm sure your good memories will console you during this difficult time.

It's always hard to lose someone. I'm no stranger to loss. On Friday, a really great man passed away. He was my co-worker.
Eric was a genuinely selfless man. He was full of conversation, and all to often had the corniest, but witty comebacks for my many smartalec comments. He always had a smile. For so many early mornings...at zero dark thirty, we'd meet up in the front entrance at work and make the best of the early morning schedule. In the last few months, as he grew weaker and weaker, I'm glad I took the time to walk at his pace coming in the door. We marveled at his tenacity and fight over the last year and a half as he battled so many sicknesses....and how he was able to overcome. When I found out a few weeks ago that he had again regressed, I was sad but knew that he was more upset about not being able to keep his routine than anything. He worried more about leaving work undone.
What a great man. I'm honored that I was able to meet you...and be a part of your life.
