Eric has been involved in Special Olympics for 6 years."By being involved in Special Olympics, it makes me proud, gives me the chance to travel and the friendships I make are fantastic."

He is currently employed, and has been for six years maintaining parking lots as a Tops supermarket front-end employee. Some of Eric's most special memories are of his perfect attendance in school and being on the honor role. Music, movies, and hanging out with his friends are his hobbies.
