Agood kid, and my friend, when alot of people wouldn't be. I missed him after I left Az and I miss him still I'll see him on the other side. His friend,...Eric T. Grimes
Eric was one of the first people I met when I moved to flag. We got in a fistfight on the basketball court and neither would back down. The teachers had to pull us apart. Even as kids the respect started there. We were almost inseprable until I dislocated my elbow in wresting practice and he thought he was to blame. It was admirable he came to see me while my arm was healing and I couldn't go to practice. We kept in touch after high school but not like we should have and when I heard from Ricky Gonzales what happened it felt like I lost a brother. We had been best friends for about 5 years and to not have a chance to really reconnect is a major regret. Those of us who knew him well understand how shy he really was and yet he was often the center of attention. He is dearly missed by many and I wish the best to Gloria, Ed, and Michelle.
