I always loved Erick he was such a genius and always so kind to me. When I first meat Erick I was afraid of computers but he made it look so easy. So sorry for your loss, sending love and prayers to Rhonda, Devon, Jerrod, and the rest of his family I know he will be greatly missed by all.

I am still processing the idea that Erick is gone from us and have had a hard time getting my thoughts together to write this. I am too sad and there is too much to say.
Erick was one of the people that had the deepest impact on my life. I had more intense discussions about more different topics with him than with anyone else. He probably was the smartest person I ever knew. We had hours long conversations, hundreds of times about life, family, the future, government & politics, computers & software, science and the universe in general. There seemed to be no topic that Erick couldn?t discuss thoughtfully.
He was my best friend for more than 20 years and I will always regret that we didn?t stay close over the last several years. I will miss Erick terribly.
My thoughts are with you, Rhonda, Devin and Jerrod. You are part of my family and always will be. I love you!

Rhonda....my thoughts and love are with you and your family during this time. How lucky you are to have found your soul mate and to have shared a lifetime of memories. I hope these memories can give you peace and joy in the days to come. You are much loved by all of us that know you and your Heritage family....including me. Please allow us to help in any way we can. I am not in Arkansas so will not be able to come but my prayers and love are there with you.

Rhonda, I was shocked to read of Ericks passing away. I pray for peace and understanding for you and the boys (actually young men by now). I enjoyed working with him at Heritage. RIP ERICK

I always enjoyed talking with Erick (my son-in-law). He always had a genius mind and we had some interesting conversations. He loved my daughter Rhonda and gave me two awesome and loving grandsons. RIP Erick!
