I am so devastated to hear of Erics passing. He was a good friend and a good hearted guy. He introduced mike and I and i will forever be greatful to him for that. Eric will be greatly missed by many. Love, light and prayers for all of you that you find peace and comfort in all your good memories of Eric.
I will miss you my friend. It is hard to believe 31 years have passed since we met. Grade and high school would not have been the same without you. I will always remember you visiting me in the Army and going to Santa Cruz. I have only good memories of you. You will never be forgotten.
We’ll all miss ya bro. Condolences to Michelle and mom and dad. You could not be forgotten by anyone who met you! I remember at the condo, 20 pounds of pepperoni… you chasing everyone around with a cattle prod. You never got me! You got everyone else though, several times. You saying every 5 minutes… Roger… the cops are here! Then the last time you said it… they were right behind me! “You’re going to jail, do you copy?” LOL! Talked to Mike Bonghit last night, he said after you zapped him with the cattle prod, he punched you with everything he had and you just chuckled at his skinny little ass and did not kill him. Pulled some crazy shight in high school. And after! Will always remember you with fondness. You’re in a better place then we now. Raise a little hell up there, will ya? Give Chiefer Chiefer Big Beller Beefers a hug from Diane and I. Love ya man!
You were missed terribly before you took your last breathe. Even more so now. I’ve missed for you a long while my friend. I am so thankful for the time and experiences we shared!!! I love you Bro, and thank God for making such a uniquely special and one of a kind soul. One of God’s own mutant prototypes, never even considered for mass production!! To strange and wonderful for this world, you have advanced to the next one, and I’m proud that you will be there to welcome us, as we come! Like life itself my friend I KNOW that you will never truly die Eric! You will live on in the the lives of those you touched and loved in this world, and having preceeded all of us, you will put your own personal touches on the next one, thus making it a place we can all look forward to joining you in!

Nancy and family-Our thoughts and prayers are with you at this sad and difficult time. We didn’t know your son, but our hearts go out to you.
I have only know Eric for short period of time but what an impact he has on others. Always happy and such a giving heart. I know he had strong faith in God and loved his mother with all his heart. He told me many times how much his mother meant to him. Eric will be missed. My prayers are with his family. Rest in peace Eric.
My up-most and deepest sympathy for Nancy and family. Eric my best friend and brother you will be missed beyond belief. You touched us all with a compassion for love and life that some will never see. The memories of joyous times we shared bring comfort in my time of sorrow. Some might not of understood you, but those close know you were a drop of life that would lift the darkest cloud. I will love you forever and when we meet again, we will pickup where we left off.
You don’t find many friends in this life who would do anything for you and vice versa. Eric would of done anything he could of to help me and my family and did many times. I have had a hard time dealing with this. I enjoyed spending time with Eric in St. Joe. I, like many, want one more day. My prayers go out to Nancy and the family. I will cherish my memories of Eric the rest of my life. Thank you for being my friend.
