I will hold on to all the wonderful memories we made down here in AR AND growing up! My heart is heavy for you Batchelder family. Please know I will continue to pray for you all and send all the love and prayers. I know the water is like glass and he’s yelling “hit it”!

Very fortunate to have been in the same graduating class (1986) with Eric. He definitely will be missed! Rest in Peace, Eric. Punky Romer

My fellow Air Force buddy. We always tried to toast to one another especially on Veteran's Day as we did last on 11-11-2023. I have many great memories with Eric, as he was one of the genuine, most kindest souls ever. He will be deeply missed. Many condolences, prayers and hugs out to family and friends.
