to other RC websites for years. You may remember his nickname as Buckaroo from RCO or Onepoint from another.
Many of you may have visited FUBAR HILL and read Eric's love for the Hog Bipe and several humorous stories.
Those of you who have become acquainted with
him know that you couldn't have a better friend.
Recently, Eric suffered a very severe injury from accident with a farm machine on his ranch in Wyoming.
Truth is Eric has lost an appendage and will be undergoing several weeks of physical therapy and will not be able to work. Also, FWIW, their is no medical insurance.
