Eric was a brilliant man! His technical aptitude was surpassed only by his ability to teach and explain difficult concepts to others in a simple, understandable way. I remember fondly the many times I tried to stump Eric with logic and word puzzlers. Needless to say, I never succeeded!

Please accept my heartfelt condolences, and know many are thinking and praying for you during this difficult time.
