Eric's struggle ended this afternoon at 4:15. He passed on peacefully and both Nikki and I were able to be by his side as he began his new journey. Services are pending.

GOOD BYE ERIC
Eric, you were so strong and brave
A precious boy were you.
I’ve learned to love you oh so much
My heart is breaking too.
Every day on daddy’s blog
I felt his loving care
When early in the morning
His write up would be there.
I do not know the reason why
Things happen as they do
But I will tell you Eric dear
My love has grown for you.
But your first breath in heaven
You soon will realize
Health beyond compare
And sight to your blind eyes.
So when I look at stars tonight
The brightest one we'll see
And know you have your porch light on
For your FAMILY……..
Barbara Cook
