It's with a heavy heart I hear this news, having not seen Eric and Chris at a hockey game for several years. I just wanted to say that Eric was so nice to me, a very happy person and knowledgeable hockey fan that I looked forward to seeing in his seat behind the net, on my trips down during the Senators years. To his family and Chris especially, condolences; Eric was one of those people who really made Binghamton a special place for me.

My deepest sympathies on the loss of Eric. I worked with him for a number of years when he worked at HealthNow. When he worked at Wilson Hospital I would often see him in the halls. Eric was one of the kindest person I knew

I met Eric while working with him in the Medicare office in 1994. He was more to me than just a coworker, he was a beloved friend to me. Eric was such a humble, respectful, polite, and intelligent man that everybody loved. Coming from Ukraine I didn't speak English very well but Eric was always helpful in working with my language barrier and it made this stressful time less difficult. I believe that Eric is in heaven with his wonderful personality and am grateful I was able to meet him in my lifetime. I extend my sincerely condolences to his family and wish them all the best in this difficult time. I pray for God's blessing upon you.
