We are deeply saddened to hear of the tragic loss of our friend, Eric. Eric was our "Rescue Ranger" here at A-1 Storage in Rio Linda with his knowledge of computers, he was always able to fix any problem we encountered. One time, he came here after a full days work at his own job, stayed until almost midnight and then returned at 6 a.m. the following morning. Our deepest sympathy to his family and wife Erina. May God grant you all the strength to continue with your lives while suffering through the loss of your loved one. When our lives are all said and done, the best thing that can be remembered is how people felt about us. Eric was kind, intelligent, clean living, soft spoken and someone who you could always count on. He will always be remembered.

"Eric was not only my boss for a short while, Eric became a dear friend of mine too. During this time we shared single dad family stories and they would always end with a big smile from both of us. My friend Eric was always there for me because that's the kind of man he IS...My prayers and thoughts are with Eric and his family"

I am truly blessed for having know Eric and I will miss him dearly! Although I am a little angry with God for taking Eric from us so soon, I remain comforted by knowing that we will someday meet again! "And I am convinced that nothing can ever separate us from God’s love. Neither death nor life, neither angels nor demons, neither our fears for today nor our worries about tomorrow—not even the powers of hell can separate us from God’s love. No power in the sky above or in the earth below—indeed, nothing in all creation will ever be able to separate us from the love of God that is revealed in Christ Jesus our Lord." Romans 8:38-39

I'm completely heart broken over the senseless loss of Eric! I was room mates with Eric and I can honestly say I never witnessed Eric without a smile on his face; he was good natured, kind and gentle. My deepest Sympathies go out to Erina, Logan, Molly and the rest of Eric's Family! Our loss is Heavens Gain! I love Eric and will miss him. Till We Meet Again.
