Please accept my deepest sympathy and condolences. Eric was my law school room mate at Harvard for three years. We had many good times together. I’m sorry we lost contact in recent years, and I was shocked to see obituary in Post today.
I am deeply saddened to learn about your loss. Eric was our patent attorney for well over ten years until his retirement and he was instrumental in establishing our intellectual property portfolio. I enjoyed Erics wit and humor and he will be missed.
My sympathies and condolences for your loss. Mr. Spector was a great mentor as I started my law career until his retirement. He will be missed.
