The Valley Aerospace Team “VAST” launched Eric’s Mega Der Red Max yesterday August 12, 2023 in tribute to him. It was one of his favorite rockets.
He was very involved with VAST, was a member of the board of directors and was a real asset to the club and will be sorely missed.
Ad Astra, to the stars and Godspeed Eric!

Eric was a friend to all and gave freely of his knowledge of rocketry. He helped me when I was a newcomer and loved sharing his passion with kids of all ages. He will be sorely missed.

My deepest condolences to the family. Eric was a friend and fellow rocketeer. He was always willing to share his knowledge and know- how. He was especially fond of helping younger rocketeers aspire to greatness. He will be sorely missed. I am glad I knew him, even though for a short time.
