Eric was a devoted husband, father and friend to all. He had a passion for spending time on the beach especially playing volleyball, golfing and watching his favorite teams, the Tampa Bay Lightning and University of Michigan football (go Blue!) If you knew Eric, you felt blessed as he was the most welcoming, kind and warm man. He was a fiercely compassionate father and husband, always putting the needs of his family first. Eric would have given you the shirt off of his back. His goal was always to ensure that his family was cared for in the manner they have become accustomed.  This campaign is meant to supplement Keira's educational fund, Megan's medical costs, and help offset the costs of settling into their new chapter in life including airline tickets and relocation expenses. All expenses will be deposited into a shared account managed by Eric's brother, Aaron, and Megan's nephew, Collin.
