Wow what a great site. Thanks for sharing it with me. In the time I spent with Eric I realized what a great father he was and how much his kids meant to him. I admired his love for them. As we got to know each other we both realized how we had judged each other completely wrong by appearances and what we had heard about each other. I learned that Eric was a big hearted, compassionate guy who really cared about his family. He was fun to be around and made me laugh with his mischief and youthful spirit. He had courage and stood up for his beliefs and what was right. I got to know a side of Eric that he didn't show that often, and I really liked him. I loved him like family, a brother sometimes and a son others(no disrespect meant). I was looking forward to having Eric as a friend when we both got home, I'm sorry I missed him....
