Many of you know Eric Crist, son of former MHBA president Jonathan Crist. Jonathan reported that Eric passed away yesterday. Eric was a Cyber Analyst for the US Navy, serving in Pensacola, FL. Please spend a moment of reflection to offer Jonathan and Diane Crist and their family a moment of support.
Below is Jonathan’s email from yesterday.
Al –
I am enroute to Pensacola FL where we will disconnect Eric from life support – they are just waiting for me to arrive.
On Thursday afternoon Eric had a head-on collision on his bicycle with a van and passed through the windshield and out of the driver’s window. Diane and I were initially just told head injuries and broken bones but he never regained consciousness and was not breathing on his own.
Eric was able to donate 6 organs to help other families. One of his lungs and his pancreas were too damaged by the crash for donation but will be donated to research.
I now have another angel looking over my shoulder
Jonathan Crist
