Dear Janet, Ty, Priscilla and Patrick, All of my love and prayers are with you. Uncle Eric was my favorite uncle -always!! He was always laughing and kind and saw things as half full instead of empty. I loved him dearly. You were lucky to have him as a husband and father. He was the very first person who came to see Eliza when she was born. That meant more to me than he could ever know. I love you all. Emily

What a great man- a true southern gentleman whose heart was full of love and compassion and whose character was pure and unwaivering. He loved his wife, children and friends with such passion! I thank God that he brought Eric into our lives through GSHE & Trapshoots. I pray that his joyful memories will ease the pain that your hearts are feeling now. Trust that his pain is no more, and his spirit is alive and offers love and support from the steps of heaven. My prayers are with each family member as your begin a new chapter without your beloved.
