    Lord , you gave us ERIC for so short a time. His life had so much promise. His future was before him. His life has passed too quickly. By the death and resurrection of your Son we are redeemed. Make ERIC worthy to share the joys of paradise. Grant him full life in Christ, and may he stand with all the angels and saints before your throne for all eternity. Grant him everlasting life. Eric was our roommate for more than a year.Dear ERIC you will be forever in our hearts.From Rohan,Sanjay,Nishan,Prasad,Daya.

    IN REMEMBERANCE OF A GREAT MAN ERIC D’SOUZA Don't grieve for me, for now I'm free, I'm following the path God has laid you see. I took his hand when I heard his call. I turned my back and left it all. I could not stay another day To laugh, to love, to work or play. Tasks left undone must stay that way I found the peace at the close of day. If my parting has left a void Then fill it with remembered joys- A friendship shared, a laugh, a kiss Oh yes, these things I too will miss. Be not burdened with times of sorrow I wish you the sunshine of tomorrow.

    My life's been full I savored much, Good friends, good times, a loved one's touch. Perhaps my time seemed all too brief Don't lengthen it now with undue grief Lift up your hearts, and peace to thee- God wanted me now, he set me free.

    Eric was a very well liked individual. He always did everything to the standards. I worked with Eric for 7 Months and he was one of a kind. The above words I wrote say it best. The lord will take care of him for he is looking down on us. Eric is here with us each day in sprit and soul watching our every move. Eric you will be truely missed , but I will never forget you. You and your family will be in my prayers always.
