I had the great pleasure of meeting Eric a few years back through a very dear friend. I also had the great opportunity to work for him for a brief time. I found Eric to be the most caring, kind and generous man I know.. On a few occasions, Eric spoke beautifully about his boys, how much he loved them and how proud of them he was. Keeping all of you inclusive of his friends, in prayer for strength, peace and comfort during this most difficult time.

We worked with Eric on and off over the years and we always appreciated his enthusiasm for his work, his tenacity, the unique perspective he brought to issues, his friendship, his passion for his hobbies, and how proud he was of his sons. He will be very much missed. We send our deepest condolences to his family. Russell and Joane London

I knew Eric for over twenty years. He was a client, friend, mentor and a really, really great guy. He was caring man willing to give the shirt off his back if he knew it would help you. He was about as loyal as they come. He was also a great cook and enjoyed entertaining his friends. He was a proud Dad too always wanting to share news about his two sons. Dustin and Dylan. I will miss our sit downs and lunches together. I will miss his smile that could light up a room. Rest in peace Eric. Ken Camello

Eric was always a very kind and caring man. Everyone he met was a potential friend. He went out of his way to help his friends, employees, clients, vendors, and all he came in contact with. I knew Eric for many years. I served with him for many years on the GRTC and the Glastonbury Planning and Zoning Commission, where his many years of knowledge in the construction industry were invaluable. He thoughtfully and deliberately considered all matters that came before us. I also worked with Eric in my capacity as a board member at my condo association - his company managed our property. He spent countless hours working to solve our problems, whether day-to-day issues or bigger ones. He made himself completely available and was truly a hands-on manager. I know he was the same with all of the communities that he managed. Over the last four years my law practice shard space with his management company. I will miss his laughter in the office, his planning meals (ribs! seafood!) to entertain his friends, his concert reviews from the Infinity Theatre in Hartford, and his boasting about his two sons and their families, who he was so proud of and who he truly loved. They brought him the most joy. Rest in peace my friend.
