Oh my, Eric! I just learned the sad news. Gone so young, it makes me very sad. So many times I thought of reconnecting with you again only to let the idea slip away. Now I will have no chance in this life. I have been reminiscing stories with Eileen Brenner. You saw each other in 2002 at Hanover theater and she suggested we get together. We did but after that only a few more times until 2007. (as far as I can recall A paragraph in your obit made me smile. The reference to Las Vegas and professional games players teaching you a good life lesson could have only been a nod to me (and Eileen) though I'm sure the authordidn't know the details. We had great times in Vegas! Also, the creative period you had when writing appealed to you. I remember editing your manuscript, (was it called Chasing Jets?) I see that you never got it published. Alas. Finally to a really good and smart guy, (I admitted to Eileen the other day that you had it all over me. She gasped!) I wish I could have seen you again but you will live on in my memories of the great times we shared, both in school and in the several times since then. Rest comfortably, Eric. You leave a worthy legacy and will never be forgotten. Michael (Mickey) Pickert, M.D.
