Thoughts of Eric abound in my world pretty much through the ocean. We live a block from the beach and hear & see the surf every day. Some of my best surfing memories are with Eric. He was such a joy to be with, really he never was anything but nice and positive. Rest assured that he sweetly touched our family. My daughter who is now 18 was really sad the hear that Uncle Bota had passed as so many others have beenI have lots of pictures of Eric AND he was one of the FIRST people to hold Crystal when she was a baby, we took her to Cabo on surfari three times before she was a year old! She was great in that blazing heat! What a trooper and Eric established his Unclehood during that time and beyond..

Eric never made a negative comment, ever ! about anyone.
He wasnt one to pass judgement, and let people know about it.
No gossip, no wasted words.
I believe he was a good Christian example in that way. Jim Hart
I have fond memories of Eric who was one of my LA County Junior Lifeguards...summer of 1968 at Torrance Beach...And I have fond memories of your entire family. Eric was quiet...one of the really, really nice guys...he let his ocean skills do the talking. A stylish surfer and a great waterman. Because I was in graduate school at USC I had access to the first Sony portable videotape recorder in the U.S. I tested the video equipment out on Eric and John and the other JGs who surfed and then we critiqued each other's surfing skills inside the Torrance lifeguard station. Everyone wanted to be able to surf as smoothly and elegantly as Eric. Long may you ride Eric, Larry Loganbill Moloa'a Bay, Kaua'i  Jr. Lifeguards, late 60's? | ArchivesCategories |
