Eric, I love you man...

Eric needed to see himself out of his situation, probably happened yesterday. :( but he felt as if he died April 26th, 2009.


from Eric,

"I am truly grateful for the effort that everyone has put forth on my behalf; know that there is nothing more anyone could have done. There is nothing anyone could have done to keep me from this path; those of you who know me best know that once I make up my mind to do something that's it."

"It has been said that "what we have done for ourselves alone dies with us; what we have done for others and the world remains and is immortal." Hopefully through my actions I will live on in your memories and hearts."


there is more, but I am barely able to type this message as it is...
I and the Mods for that matter thought it important to post something factual so that people are informed.

Eddy :(

I'm still numb, since hearing the news earlier today.

We love you Eric!
 
I am at a loss and can only hold on to the idea that the pain and suffering are over

RIP Eric
 
Very sad news indeed. Eric was a unique individual, an asset to the motorcycling community, and obviously a great guy; just witness how many people have done so many great things to try and help him out during this difficult time.

Rest in peace, Eric.

Thank you for posting, Eddy. It needed to be done and I don't think it could have been handled better.
 
Godspeed Eric :rose

No limitations now.. only peace.

You fought a good fight and chose your path.
I hope your friends and family will live strong with the memories of the man you were.

A little piece of all motorcyclist that knew of him has been chipped away.

Raise a pint for Eric tonight.........You will be missed.
 
Holy Shit!!!!

WOW!! I am speechless, after seeing the progress and everything. I think of the picture Alex posted of him sitting up in bed during recovery. Let his memory never fade

:rip
