    My first memory back in 2002 moving into the grove in Holbrook was what a friendly neighbor Erik was. Always had a smile on his face and always willing to help us if needed. You will be missed so much, you're leaving behind 3 great kids. Always will be in my thoughts

    Erik you have always been more than my friend. Your trustworthy and honesty and loyalty and non-judgemental kindness you have shown me has made me who I am but a much better person. I do remember all of our antics and amazement that we actually pulled it off and we didn't get hurt or arrested. Love you my brother. Tim Dunphy

    Grammie, Jacob Thomas, Zachary, and Hannah, My heart is just broken with you all. Uncle Erik was truly one of a kind, and it's hard to imagine life without him here. He had such a way of making everyone feel loved and supported, and I'll forever be grateful for the role he played in my life.
