I worked with Eric for both my Father and my Mother's celebration of life. He showed great care in gathering information to personalize the eulogy and his skills at officiating made both of their funerals a very special experience. I can't tell you how many people commented on how much they enjoyed both services.

Eric was a caring and thoughtful officiant over several funeral services that I participated in this year. His understanding of the decedent who is being honored as well as the family was evident in his comments.
His knowledge about the religious components or lack thereof was helpful and allowed for beautiful services that closely matched the beliefs of the family. I was really impressed with the caring and personal way he was able to handle these sad but reflective services and I felt better after the ceremony as a result of the way he officiated.
I would choose Dr. Fought to officiate a service for any of my family and friends in the future. I found comfort in his approach, words, and actions.

When my uncle died we knew that he would want a somewhat traditional funeral service but no one in the remaining family felt comfortable attending a full Catholic Mass. Eric was great in working with us to plan exactly what we needed, using the prayers of the Catholic funeral in a funeral home service. The next day he joined several family members at Fort Snelling for a veteran's burial, offering prayers. It meant a lot to us, and I know it would have meant the world to my beloved uncle.

I am writing this to recommend and highly praise Eric Fought.
Eric’s empathy and compassion for the deceased and the family and friends was so very obvious. His voice and demeanor not only calmed, but the timber was clear and understandable for all of us that no longer hear as well as we once did! He was serious when needed and added gentle humor when appropriate.
Eric was a blessing to my friend in his grief and I know he would be for other families.
