He enjoyed going to gun shows and he never knew a stranger.  Eric was the only person we ever knew that could eat a whole cow and be hungry an hour later.

Eric loved the Lord with all his heart. He was saved and baptized in 2015. He served the Lord in many capacities until the day that he went to be with his Father. Eric will be dearly missed. When you remember Eric, remember him with a smile!
