Eric Scott Lane came into this world knowing he was different. His eyes where keen on the colors around him, his voice intent to tell all he knows, and his brain always working faster than his hands could operate.

He has a heart of compassion, an empathetic heart and broad shoulders too easy to shed a tear upon. He is not afraid to ask for 'somethings' and certainly does not expect 'things' to be given to him. His life's work is honest, diligent and complete with personal integrity.

Through the eyes of an artist, Eric has painted his life, traveling from corner to corner with a few crumbled dollars and Eric continues to yearn for more. Through this he has known VIP's, dignitaries from foreign soils, government officials, lawyers, beggars and bums. His hand shake is firm and steady, his smile welcoming and his 'well wishes' earnest and heart felt befitting to his eclectic friends and extended family.

Eric is unpretentious. What you see, you get.

Some say '...people come into your life for a reason, a season or a lifetime...' I believe, with Eric, he does all three in one relationship. He always sees to know who needs what and when. And just as bold as he makes his presence known, he has the uncanny ability to slip into the background and the way he touches you, touches me, remains. Misunderstood by too many who do not allow themselves to see beyond his boyish laughter, his 'weird' sense of humor and sarcastic quick wit they have allowed an opportunity to know Eric as Eric, slip away but never unnoticed.

I cherish his humor and his ability to laugh at death as he faces it head on; to laugh even when he is disappointed; to laugh even when he needs and wants to cry. Eric remains constant. He celebrates each day as a gift that is, complete and open to the possibilities the day, the life given and chosen has offered him. Eric Scott Lane, our Warrior...9277467.
