I lost touch with Eric after Holiday season '2014. I've been investigating his death since. We were inseparable best friends in the late 80's & on. The last time I saw his family was summer '92. I'm Greg Purcell. My late brother was John Purcell. If anyone would like to reach out, like Chris, Amy or Joanne. Email.
