mr. golf my mom came into my room and i was reading your post to her made her tear up. we had a member of our family that was good athlete here and fell in to bad company. she has always said the our town does not care about are youth or they would spend on them to give them something to do when school is out. that is why she takes me over across town to the ymca on the weekends. when i told her who you where she wanted me to tell you that your son has been a good role model for me. eric has helped me get stronger and keeps me focus on what i need to do even talks to me about doing good in school. i don't have a dad i really have looked up to your son. he tells me that you really keep him up with him to. i hope he gets his dream in the next few weeks and wanted you to no this. eric is good man and very good football player he is to. we liked watching him on tv in the all star game and game of the week. she said she prays for him to get his dream and tell you. if you read this tell eric i will see him at the y tommorow.
