It has been years but I always remember your family warmly. Eric always had a twinkle in his eye. He was warm and welcoming. Made me feel like family even though I was very young and so far from home. I was able to tune in and watch the service. Praying for you as a family during this time of loss. Lots of love to all of you.

Sometimes you had to take the meat and leave the bones. But the meat was always rich and came from the throne room. He delivered his morsels like he played golf, usually with a good swing, a hard smack but it made it to it destination right on target. I’ll miss you Eric. Enjoy eternity next to the saints. My thoughts are with you all!
