Very sorry to hear about this. I didn't get a chance to meet Eric in person, but I've bought a part from him before and he was very easy to work with. I hope his soul is at rest.

Subaru owner or not, it is saddening and sobering to hear someone my age losing their life. Rest in peace.

its a small world, I just found out the company I'm using for the stickers, the owner's wife is friends with Eric's mom.

I will advise when they are ready and i will then put up the paypal and instructions.

Totally agreed. Talking is definitely good in this kind of situation. Its not the easiest thing to do, but it helps people greatly to get their thoughts and feelings out rather than bottling them up. My best friend's mom took her life about a year ago and the thing that helped him the most was talking about it with friends and family. Sometimes people think they're being "polite" by keeping everything to themselves, but in this situation discussion really is very helpful.

No one really knows why he did it. Eric had a great job. Family. He had everything going for him. He did not show any sings of doing this to himself.

I will miss you Eric.... see you on the track

Very depressing situation here. Sucks to hear someone took their own life. Prayers to his family and friends. I hope they make it out okay.

Do we know why he was so depressed? Financial...love life?

What a waste of a young life.....I never met the guy but I'm sad that he chose such drastic actions..
