Eric was a true friend. He gave me my first and best advice when promoted, "Always cover yourself by email. It's dated and time stamped." May the Peace of Christ carry you through.

My mind goes back to our BellSouth days at the Madison office. Eric imbued his philosophy of "don't get mad, get even" in me. What a great person to work and 'happy-hour' with. Gail, my prayers and my love go with you and your family. Be Blessed!
