...One of many visits to Tom Todos, HAWAII, AHHHHHCheck this one out. Brian and Eric had been exploring(probably looking for more beer, you know it is Mexico) out across the Highway On a turnaround they caught the ditch and became hopelessly stuck. So being men of great resources they just slept where they found themselves. When they didn’t show up at camp that night, we all were concerned . We finally made contact in the morning and rounded up a farmer with his tractor to give a hand. Pictured Mike, Vince(I think), Brian, Eric and Tom. I was stuck behind the camera but helped Brian with breakfast!
UNCLE, another word for Friend who brings gifts. Here is Eric w/ Lyanna Hart - need another one w/ Susan! |

You would smile too: Eric in Cabo & Joanne BertuzziHello Lisa , nice to meet you. Sorry it has to be under this circumstance. I didn't know him as Eric, I knew a kind sweet man known as Bota. I was happy to read that you had been with him at the hospital before he passed. When the Harts came to the states in the summers, they stayed with us and Bota always came for a visit. Last year he spent his birthday here with all of us. We'll miss him. Thanks for making the web site. ---------JoanneSorry but I don't know who everyone is, do you????Ok here goes: Mike Huwe says letftop = girl-Brian Cumpson, Bota, Jim Bates.

Scott A. Enochs([email protected]) Friday, 26 Nov 2010 11:26:5311/26/10 ****I was so saddened to hear about Erics passing. I had just called him two weeks ago and then yesterday his sister found me on facebook. Well on Thanksgiving my family and I went to my Dads in Manhattan beach and Erics grandmothers house was torn down and a new one was being built. This is were I meet Bota and we surfed together for many years after that, This was about 1969. I guess it could of been a sign that the house was being reborn. Eric had a small room in the garage and we would hang out there and my dads on the beach and surf and surf and surf. Eric always would sit way outside and wait for the big left to catch and ride. He always got the best waves. We took many trips to Encintas where we would stay at John's house at D street and yes we did go to stone steps alot. Well to me Bota was like a Buda. Never a bad thing to say or do.He enjoyed life to the fullest and especially the ocean. I'll always remember him sitting way outside waiting for his big left to heaven. See you there Bota Buda Your buddy Scott
It was the summer of 1978 when I took these photos of Eric along the Strand, biking from Manhattan to Hermosa and along the way enjoying a couple tall Schlitz beers. Eric was mellow as usual. It was a fun day, a fun summer .... Paul Olsen
