Eric,

I just wanted to wish you a Happy Birthday. Since you used to like the jokes I put in my postcards, here’s a good one for you and your family.

A man walks into a seafood store with a trout under his arm. He asks, “Do you make fish cakes?”

“Yes, we do,” replied the fishmonger.

“Great,” the man says, “it’s his Birthday.”

Just a little humor there.

Today I’ll be eating a Baconator meal with Kevin and Leslie in your honor and to celebrate your memory, along with booting up Halo 3 tonight when I get home. You are very missed. Cheers to you and the impact you left on everyone. We all love you!
