This is my friend Eric Peery. He works with Lisa at Access Tucson. The first plant named at the Arbor-etum was a saguaro named after The Big Guy. And he's getting married today.
I took this picture Wednesday night at his "Guys Night Out" Party.
Eric's a good guy. One of the reasons I know he is, is that Wednesday night he sat next to the first kid he met in first grade... who said he was. And is.
Bunches of Eric's childhood buddies were there: David and Bubba, and Mitch, Ricardo, Paul and Jim to name a few. And his big brother and his nephew. And Brian and Don, friends met through Access Tucson.
Eric told a story about everyone there, and then had us tell stories about him. It was warm and funny and mythic. All we lacked was the campfire.
The Arboretum wishes him and Debbie every good thing.
