We have known Eric and Nancy since 2016 when they were  our neighbors and the first ones to welcome us to the neighborhood.  
Knowing Eric is knowing Nancy because he spoke so highly of her and the love he has for her and the grandkids.  Eric always has a smile and a kind heart.  Eric and Sandy would spend moments outside exchanging ideas about yard work, since each of them wanted the best manicured yard on the street, and they did achieve it (laugh).   Eric has a heart of gold, he never hesitated to assist anyone that needed help.   He will be certainly missed on earth.

The Porters

It's  hard to put in to words how heartbroken Fred and I were when getting the call about Eric.    We loved him as part of the family and will forever cherish the memories of him.   Nancy, we grieve for your     loss and will always be here for you; you are a precious part of our family.    All the fun times together with you both and trips we've taken, the cooking together...Eric loved to cook, when he was here!  All the sharing and laughter, sitting by the fire... the serious talks , too, which brought us closer, all have become more treasured.  It's hard to say goodbye....

Our memories of Eric are from the summer in the late 1970s when he was 12 or 13 and his brother Kirk 9 or 10.  They spent the summer with us in Maryland.  While attending church service one Sunday the minister asked “Have we any visitors today?” Eric raised his hand and stood up introducing himself.  There were various activities, camping at Deep Creek Lake, Maryland, and an overnight on the Boardwalk in Ocean City, Maryland.  When arriving home after the overnight and talking to his dad on the phone, Eric enthusiastically exclaimed, “Dad, I can still hear the ocean in my ears.”  August 2019, was the last time we saw Eric.  It was an 80th birthday party celebrating his father’s birthday and Eric shared with us memories of that summer.
Eric loved life and all it had to offer.  He was the older brother longed for by many,  and he filled that role to Kirk and Jerry.   Family was Eric’s priority and that priority remained.    
Words cannot be found to express the emotions his beloved wife Nancy and family are experiencing.

Dear Eric-
I loved watching how you loved my sister. You had a way of making her feel so safe and secure in your love.  She knew you loved her and she loved you.  I saw how you gave each other space to grow and develop your own interests, which only enhanced your relationship.

You always made me feel safe and secure too.  Maybe it was because of your size.  No one would want to mess with you! But, more likely it had to do with the fact that you would fiercely defend what you cared for and deeply loved.

You had such a beautiful gift of serving others.  I marveled how you partnered with Nancy in your home.  You helped one another in so many ways, not begrudgingly but with love.  I along with many others have experienced your kindness.  You would halt your plans at a moment’s notice to help a friend or neighbor in need. You inspired me to do better.  

Thank you for always welcoming me into your home, for cooking amazing meals, for the chance to talk politics with you, for teaching me how to shoot and so much more.   Thank you for calling me “little sis”.  I loved that!

 I love you, and will miss you til we meet again.
Barb.

So I just finished watching the video on Eric's life again.  What struck me was the smile.  It was in his baby pictures and in all of the pictures of his life.  When we went to his viewing on Sunday, it was still with him.  He always knew that there was something better in store for him.  He may never have verbalized it, but he knew he would be with Jesus eventually.  I will miss his smile and the rolling of his eyes when Nancy said something he disagreed with. I will always love you and Nancy. Rest in peace my friend.

We have known Nancy from the time her boys were in elementary school, but we didn’t get to know Eric until about 10 years ago.
We came to know a man who among other great qualities, had a soft spot for his dogs, a love for his nephews and grandchildren, and compassion for many. He was a man who could grill like a professional; who worked hard and played hard; who loved his country and who loved serving others any way he could. I regret that I don’t have time to learn more about him. 

Eric Larson was a gentle giant with a huge heart who most of all, brought great joy and unconditional love to my friend’s heart. 
No words can express the loss I feel for her. 

Eric and Nancy became instant friends of ours back in 2005 when we bought the house next door.  I cannot even tell you how many hours Eric and I spent out in the front yard talking about anything and everything.  We took care of each others’ houses and pets (still miss Tubs and Daisy) but most importantly, we cultivated a friendship that would last a lifetime.  Eric and Nancy were there for us when Colton spent his first 2 months in the Cooks Nicu...always asking how they could help....true friends!  Eric will be truly missed! Love, Pat, Amy, Colton, and Carson

I remember Eric from the DFW building, tall handsome and respected guy. Always willing to share words of encouragement to us rookies in the feeder department. You will be missed here on earth BROTHER in BROWN 😢💔🙏🏾❤️💋 Prayers for your family 🙏🏾

I have never met Eric, but I am a team driver for UPS out of the Philadelphia Airport. I can’t imagine the loss you all feel. My heart goes out to your family as I will hold his memory on my mind always.

My sympathy to you and your family. I so enjoyed visiting with you last summer in Iowa at the family reunion and hearing about your wonderful sons and families.  I wish I could have met Eric. My thoughts and prayers are with you at this time.

I only met Eric once at the lake, but his first impression was that he was a happy, welcoming man that had a smile that wouldn't quit. He also seemed a bigger, bouncier version of Kirk, and knowing Kirk, that's saying a lot.   He also had the energy, almost, of his 2 nephews and knowing his nephews, that's also saying a lot.  He loved his family so much and they love him so much.  It's unfair he was taken away and our hearts reach out to the Larson family.  Remember all the good things about Eric and all the times you shared and, because there are so many, you will be thinking about Eric all the time with a smile on your face to help you get through.
