NoHair's wife asked me to let his friends here on ARFCOM know that he passed away of a heart attack Tuesday morning.

He was a very important friend to many of us, and will be missed greatly.
He was on,y 44 years old, and is survived by his wife, and his 2 children.

Here is the post from his wife:

With profound sadness we must share we have lost the best dad and husband in the world. Tuesday Eric had a sudden cardiac event. He wasn't alone, and he didn't suffer. We are in disbelief and shock. If we could, we would contact each one of you personally, Eric's family is large, and (no surprise) his list of friends is huge. Our sincere apology if you are learning of this tragedy via electronic media, (I'm doing the best I can, but my focus must be on supporting our kids and family). We are so grateful for the comforting outpouring of love and support. Please know we appreciate everything, we are blessed with many messages and calls, we listen to and read every one, but if we can't manage a reply, please forgive us. We are very blessed, we have tremendous assistance of family and dear friends meeting every need at this moment, it's mid spring break and Savannah and Andrew are surrounded by loving peers.

What a great soul
He was a true friend to this community and to those that called him a friend or brother.

This one hits very close to home for me. Eric is wearing my father's jacket. Dad had just passed away a couple years prior to this and I gave him that jacket at a shoot because it was to large for me.
Can you email me a clean copy Mark?
Thanks man.
