Eric was a very close friend of mine. I think I speak for our entire circle of friends when I say that there was never anyone with a bigger personality or a bigger heart. Big Easy always had my back no matter what, no questions asked. life will not be the same without him. My love and support is with the Boyle family in these trying times. B-EZ, E-BZ.

I went to RMU with Eric and he was always such a nice and respectful kid. He always went out of his way to say hello and ask how I was doing. Gone far too soon. My condolences go to his family.

Shane and The Boyle Family,
I did not know your beautiful son, I am a friend and coworker of Shane, knowing his work ethic and personality I can imagine your boy was a wonderful human being taken way too soon. I too have lost a son at a very young age so I understand the pain you are all in right now. Know that some of the hardest days you have ahead, they do get better, eventually you will smile when you remember your little boy take things day by day, minute by minute if you have to, you will get through this difficult time, I have been praying for all of you, and have asked my angel to welcome yours, lean on each other at this time and your faith you will get through

RIP Eric.

I am so heartbroken for Eric's family and close friends, 24 years is not enough time to spend with someone who was so kind, dedicated, funny and all around a great person. I was a classmate of Eric at RMU. He told me he had big plans of going on to get his Master's degree after graduation. He was a wonderful person who I only have fond memories of. The people close to him will remain in my thoughts and prayers.

April 20, 2015

To the family my deepest condolences. May the God of tender mercies be with you.
