<span style="font-family: Aptos, sans-serif; font-size: 11pt;">Ed and Julie Bible are praying for comfort for the family. I met Eric many years ago when he was one of my students. I have positive memories of him and his work. I know he feels no pain and he
can see. He is in a better place. We pray that all who knew him have blessed memories of the man and his work.</span></p>
