Eric was truly one of the good ones. We were each others’ first kiss in the 5th grade and grew up living just a few blocks from one another. In recent years, he grew into being my close friend and helped me through a very dark time in my life. He was a good man. A fiercely loyal friend. And he let me spoil his dogs rotten. I miss him already. I’m so sorry for your loss Nelson family. I’m so sorry…
Erik you will be missed man.=(
