I think what I find amazing, and what has in turn made this loss so much more difficult, is the just the flood of stories about Eric, and how good he truly was. I mean, I have never seen the outpouring over a driver like there has been with Eric. And it seems to come from everyone, even the emotion that is shown from the other drivers, like Scott Kalitta for example, I mean he just had such a positive effect on so many people. With some people you never know if they are truly genuine with their personality, but Eric leaves no doubt as to what a great man he was, even to the people that never knew him personally. Don't get me wrong, these stories are fantastic, but man do they amplify the loss exponentially.
