He was also a graduate of Fitchburg State College where he played football and was a member of the Phi Beta Sigma Fraternity. Erik worked as a Storage Sales Account Executive for Hewlett Packard Enterprise but his most treasured role was being a father and husband. Erik lived for his wife and children.

He never missed an opportunity for a father-daughter dance and attended every basketball, hockey and baseball game. Erik volunteered as a Coach and was on the Board of Directors for Lynnfield Little League for many years. He attended CrossFit 128, where he made many lasting friendships. Erik loved to travel with the whole family, whether it was north to Ogunquit and Lake Winnipesaukee, or south to Marco Island.
