I was crushed to hear about Eric´s passing. He has been my only counselor in recovery and I will miss him deeply. He was an incredible listener and always willing to help. His death has impacted me more than I ever expected. But it´s easy to understand why once you get to know him. His kindness and compassion was truly top tier and very much appreciated by me and I´m sure by many others there as well. He always greeted you with a big smile and I hate that we won´t get to see that again but he will live on in our hearts and memories forever. My condolences to his family and friends. Sending love and prayers for all his family and loved one's.
Sincerely,
Annette B.

I was so saddened to hear of Eric´s passing. He was such a sweet, caring, and peaceful presence, and he brought so much kindness to everyone around him. I feel truly lucky to have known him, even if only for a short time, and to have witnessed his passion for giving back and helping others in their recovery. His warmth and compassion left a lasting impression, and he will be deeply missed by all who had the privilege of knowing him. My thoughts and condolences are with his family at this time.
