  • The world is a poorer place with the passing of Uncle Eric. He will be remembered as a selfless and caring person who was always willing to give of his time and wisdom to enrich the lives of everyone he came into contact with. I’m convinced that “No I can’t help with that” or “Sorry, not right now” were never said by him - ever. My deepest condolences to Auntie Dianne, Gerry and Terry. - Posted by: Tim Pohl (Nephew) on: Aug 07, 2015
