*Eric has always been a down to Earth and real person. It's been a long time since we seen each other in Arkadelphia. I know that the Family and loved ones understand that we will all see you when we get there. In the meantime, my Prayers go out to your Wife, Children and to the rest of the people who love you so much. When God need me I will also be ready. Until then, I'll continue to leave a Legacy just like you did Eric. I look forward to seeing you when I get there. Eric Wells - Dallas Texas
