If your lucky, you will have someone who comes in to your life and completely changes your perspective on everything. All of us, at some point, have known friends that no matter where we are or what we do, will always be a part of our lives and whom we try to remember in everything we do.

Well after the Big Show this year, on June 9th 2005, I lost one of the most important people in my life, Eric Hitchings. Eric was the person that got me involved in the MiniTruck scene years and years ago. He was the person that I could always count on to be there for me when I needed something, and his only request was that if he ever needed anything (which he didn't ever), that I return the favor to him. Eric never lost his temper, he tried to be friends with everyone, and he was someone that I will always respect. I told someone one time that I called the person whose Opinion I really respected, and it was funny to hear them as me if I was referring to Eric.

<br>
And while we miss him, and a huge void has been placed in my life and many others that have known him, we will continue on with this show season in his memory and will spend the rest of our lives insuring that his 4 children remember him always.
<br>
<br>
Eric, we will always love you and I will always cherish every minute that you were in my life!!!
