This is devastating news.
It just is not fair to lose a wife and mother at that age.
May God bless Eric and his family in their time of need.
I am going to go upstairs and give my wife and son a hug,
this was a huge reminder on how precious life is.

Very sad

Sorry for the loss. We will remember the family in prayer. The Bible says that all the hairs on our head are accounted for and we all have an appointment with death. It also says that we are to rejoice as we are going home! I'll pray for strength, comfort, guidence, and support for the family.

Eric has been a good friend to alot of people in the Buick community for a number of years and if anyone is interested in sending money for their children's education fund it can be sent below.

We are going to take up a collection from some racers at Cecil this weekend and send it in, it is the least we can do to help. This is so very sad.

Address below:

In lieu of flowers, donations in Jennifer's memory may be made to an educational fund for her children, c/o Katherine Harvey, 1416 Silver Lane, East Hartford, CT 06118.

Wow! That is hard to believe! For those of you that do not know Eric personally I can say without a doubt that he has helped countless people for well over a decade. Myself included.

I only met his wife a couple of times at the old shop. She was a very nice woman. I cant imagine how one would cope with only one child, nevermind 5!

Has anyone thought about collecting a donation for expenses?
