Raz....What to say. From day one when you walked past our neighborhood bar you became related. I was able to introduce you to the Patrick's family and from then on....you were family. Too much to say and also speechless. We are all heartbroken and your Louisville homies are left with a void not to ever be filled, because you were a one of a kind guy. Everyone will remember you for your hugs, stories, positive attitude, friendship and of course, the food and snacks you always brought (not necessarily in that order). Everyone is feeling the EPIC loss without you here! Never forgotten! Raz In Peace!!

I'll always remember you Raz and will miss you terribly. I hope you are at peace. It was always great seeing you and I'll miss you calling me Janie.

"Having gone to highschool with him, I will forever remember Erik as a good friend, great athlete, and all around nice guy. I had a lot of fun with Erik and I wish his family my sincere condolences."

The family went on a horse back ride and I could not get off the horse. Raz was there to drag me off... believe me it was funny! Sympathy to Jeannie, Kara, Karly, Jake and Holy! Sympathy also to his dear friend and side kick Cathy! My heart is breaking at the loss of my friend! Rest in Peace Raz!

Gonna miss your bear hugs, Erik. You, the extrovert, always made me, an introvert, feel special. And who´s going to do the high leg kicks with me? Gone too soon, but never forgotten

Erik helped show me to slow down in life and enjoy it. He was very easy going and enjoyed whatever he was doing. Take it easy buddy and RIP.
