Dearest Aunt Tommie & Family:

I was so saddened to hear about your beloved Eric. You are all in my thoughts and prayers at this time.

I have fond memories of Uncle Eric extending back to early childhood when, during our visits to Charleston, he always greeted me and my family with the most loving hug and inviting smile. A beautiful memory like this is how I will remember and cherish him.

I hope the warm memories you have of Eric will live in your hearts and give you comfort and peace today and always.

With heartfelt sympathy and love.

Cousin Tommie:

My heart aches to have learned of Eric's passing. For over the 60+ years that I have known him, he was always a loving and doting husband to his beloved Tommie. He was a caring and dedicated father to his children and a wonderful son-in-law to Aunt Marie and Uncle Manny. My family and I loved Eric. He possessed a warm and endearing personality. We will miss him but will always remember how much he loved you and his family.

Love Nathaniel and Cecile
