What an honor and privilege to have known Eric and to celebrate his life. I so enjoyed being a friend of Eric's and hearing him share his deep thoughts and ideas. He showed a maturity beyond his years. He had the character of Jesus in showing compassion and love to others. His heart was given to serving, often times behind the scenes, making the many selfless contributions that great lives are built upon. My memories and appreciation of Eric linger long past his time on earth. I thank God for his life and look forward to one day again, in heaven, being with Eric. You are missed and loved, sweet friend.
