    So sorry to hear about Eric. You are all in my thoughts & prayers. I never really knew him but my Mom (Edith Ennen Phillips)talked about him alot. So glad he got to come to her visitation last year, it meant alot. I’m sure they are now catching up on old times together. Cherish all the memories you have & remember he’s in a better place than we are.

    sorry to here about Eric’s passing. He was a great guy and a good customer to us here at the radiator shop. He loved the collector cars and we had many conversations on owning rental property. He will be truly missed. If there is anything we can do to the family please let us know.

    Jean & Family, I just heard about the loss of Eric here at work.The little that I have known him, I learned that he was one caring person and loved to help people out anyway that he could. I would have went to the service if I knew this sooner. He will be missed by many and Cheerful Home does appreciate everything that he has done for us. May God keep you and the family in His care. Nancy

    Jean & family,

    We were very sorry to hear about Eric. We valued his expertise as a mechanic and his friendship. We have good memories, especially of the road trip we took with you and Eric and the car group. Our thoughts and prayers are with you.
