We knew Eric through our son James, especially when the two were friends at Dartmouth. Eric visited our home in Chicago once or twice for several days. He was so friendly and warm, bright, witty, entertaining. We are saddened but know he is with the Heavenly Father in whose care no one can claim sadness and all is joy.
Best regards and sincere hope for your peace,
Jean and Craig Bartholomew,
now of Halifax, VA
