Eric was a good friend of mine from our days at Moraine Valley community College. We lost touch as we became more established on our career paths. Eric was a kind generous person and I can tell he reached out and bettered the lives of everyone he encountered, like he did for my life. I'm extremely sorry to learn of his passing. God Bless you my Friend, rest in peace
