I am so sorry to hear of Eric’s passing. I grew up Eric and Karen in the Temple and still wear the Chai they gave me for my Bat Mitzvah and think of them often. May his memory be a blessing

Eric worked with me on several projects over the years at GE Information Services. He was a go to guy on many technical matters. His sense of humor and personality made him a joy to work with. Eric always came through in tough situations. We were separated by geography most on most of our projects but on the phone he made it seem like we were in the same room. A very sad loss. God speed.<br>Silvio Anichini
