Eric was a great person to know you couldn't ask for a better friend I've know him for 40 years . We always kept in touch through out the years. He was a strong person through his ups and downs. He will be missed and always have a place in my heart

We called him Rick, when he got older he insisted on Eric. In Potomac where he grew up he was always popular, ran with the fast crowd and played golf from a very young age. As a young adult he caught the muscle building craze and got large. He even entered a few contests.

But through all of it, I remember Rick as an extremely talented guy who loved creativity, playing music and surrounding himself with nice things and nice people.

And, he loved his Mom.
