I just learned of this as I was searching for Eric for a reference. I am completely shocked. Eric was the first person that believed in me and showed me how to believe in myself. I am so sorry to hear of your passing and to his mother, he adored you and the light you instilled in him was so bright it lit the path that led me to follow my dreams. Fly High my friend.
I had the pleasure of doing consulting work for Eric while he was in Jacksonville. We grew to be good friends as we shared deep talks and conversations about life, God, work and fun. He will be missed and is wish his family well through this difficult time. God bless you Eric.
Eric, you were my best friend in high school and we had the greatest of times. I am devastated to hear that you are no longer with us and you had so much more to give. We swam together on the swim team, we played hard together, we got in trouble together but I would never change it for anything. I have such wonderful memories of you, Chrispin and me running all over the place. I love you brother.

Was so sadden with the news of Eric's passing. He was such a remarkable young man. Eric worked for me at the Double Tree Restaurat in Platteville Colorado. His work ethics was to be commended as you could always count on him to be at work when he was scheduled. Needless to say you were not always ready for his fun antics he would come up with. Always happy go lucky attitude in all he did as well as an excellent job. I dearly loved this guy and have kept up with him through the years. His accomplishments speak for their self as truely a remarkable person. I am so proud of all he did and cherish all the memories I have shared with him. Accept my condolences and may you find comfort and peace. God Bless. Much love to all. Shirlee Davis
