Hello, All
This is Josh, Eric's oldest son.
As many of you know, Eric was fighting a long and exhausting battle with cancer over the past few years. I write to you today with a heavy heart as my father tragically lost his battle with cancer on Monday August 10th.
I want to sincerely thank every person who was kind enough to reach out and provide my father support through this difficult time. This community provided him a much needed emotional lift that was indispensable during his long fight.
To all of those who have purchased or exchanged books from and with Eric, please know that getting a new sale or discovering a new addition to his collection was one of the few bright spots in his life. My father has been in love with magic since he was 8 years old and sharing that passion with fellow magicians was one of his greatest thrills.
Eric is survived by his three children - Ashley, Joshua and Zachary who he loved more than anything in this world. God-willing, he is now reunited with his wife, our mother, Jill, who we also lost in to cancer in 2016.
My siblings and I will do everything we can to ensure the site stays active and the shop remains open until the collection is sold.
Please feel free to reach out with any questions or concerns and please excuse any delays in shipment and delivery as we work through this transition.
Thank you all and God Bless.
