In my first job out of college in 1991, Eric became my friend and mentor, who helped me grow into a better person. He was one of the truly good guys.
I will miss him, but carry his words and stories with me always. Suzi and I extend our deepest heartfelt sympathies to Laurie, his children, and entire family. All our love.
