Where to start? So many wonderful memories of time spent with Eric. When he was little we used to enjoy playing Star Fox on the Nintendo 64. Later as he got older we played games like Halo and Wi bowling. We had awesome times at the lake, spending most of it in the water swimming and wake boarding. He used to love asking my son John to name Thomas the trains friends, but one in particular. He knew how to make me laugh with his witty sense of humor. The world is just a little bit darker without you.
