Sad news...Eric was one of the good ones.

TJNY · March 24th, 2012, 11:31 PM

Very sad news, indeed. He will be missed.

promagnum · March 24th, 2012, 11:34 PM

Sad. Prayers sent to his family.

PapaBeef · March 24th, 2012, 11:53 PM

Sad news.
There's nothing I hate more than signing on here looking for some light hearted entertainment & seeing that we've lost another one.
RIP

stantheman · March 25th, 2012, 12:04 AM

Eric was one of my first Friends here and his postings certainly will be missed.
I'm praying he's at peace.
My condolences to Eric's Family and to all of his Friends.

Rod Parsons · March 25th, 2012, 12:17 AM

Sorry to hear... Sad... RIP, Eric....

Westerly Sunn · March 25th, 2012, 12:34 AM

Peace and blessings to the spirit of out departed brother; Eric, and to his friends and family.

O- Fender · March 25th, 2012, 12:57 AM

I enjoyed his posts.

I never met him in person. That is my loss.

Bye Eric.

genelovesjez · March 25th, 2012, 12:59 AM

I'm so sorry to hear the sad news about Eric. Back in the day, when it seemed like Eric and I were almost the only Toronto-area TDPRIers, we often messaged about getting together. Unfortunately, it never happened.

I always enjoyed his posts. Eric was always insightful and interesting, and effortlessly a sincere gentleman.

He will be missed.

Slowpoke · March 25th, 2012, 01:04 AM

Now your God can watch over you in person Eric.. RIP mate... Slowpoke

Justinvs · March 25th, 2012, 01:29 AM

Awww, damn it all. I always looked forward to Eric's posts. He seemed like such a nice guy. RIP.

Dave W · March 25th, 2012, 01:40 AM

So sorry to hear this.

ringodingo · March 25th, 2012, 02:06 AM

That fella Eric was a very interesting thread poster. He mentioned stroke concerns many months back when he wrote about being treated for too much drinking. Makes me wonder. Don't you think he could have written a book? Check out his threads.
RIP

kelnet · March 25th, 2012, 02:51 AM

Toronto just got a little bit colder. I'll miss Eric's great contributions here. Far too young to go.

PraiseCaster · March 25th, 2012, 02:56 AM

Godspeed Eric!

Nice guy. Good member here at the TDPRI.

Prayers sent for his friends and family.........

This is really sad news. RIP Eric.

PeterUK · March 25th, 2012, 05:56 AM

It's a sad day in TDPRI land. Another brother leaves for a better place.

We've lost some great pickers in the last few years. I do know that there's one heck of a jam going on somewhere.

RIP Eric. You will be missed.

Peter

JayFreddy · March 25th, 2012, 07:36 AM

The perils of junk food. In January he ate his first Twinkie... and barely a month later, he's gone...

For anyone who doesn't know, Eric made a joke thread about eating his first Twinkie in January. It made me smile, and I'm sure many other people too.

Seriously, this is sad news. Best wishes to his friends and family.

Chip · March 25th, 2012, 09:33 AM

It’s always sad when we lose one of our TDPRI family.

Here is something that Eric said when discussing the passing
Of “Spyder” Bolles last Christmas…

“Indeed, a heart-felt ho to all those that were once a part of the TDPRI.”

I’ll second that for you Eric.

R.I.P.

JackStraw · March 25th, 2012, 09:41 AM
