He was inducted into Beta Gamma Sigma and Golden Key National Honor Societies. He hosted a weekly radio program called “Retrotations" for the campus radio station WCDB-Albany. He launched a startup business in his dorm room to pay his way through college, and ran it successfully for 7 years. Eric was an extremely smart and gifted individual.

Eric was married to Annette Lerner on March 4, 2006 in the Archbishop's Palace in Maidstone, Kent, England. The two were blessed with beautiful twin daughters, Keira and Grace “Beth" Lerner in March 2009.

Eric's passion was karaoke. He was absolutely the ultimate music man, who loved singing and encouraged everyone to participate, young and old, no matter how good at singing they were!

The family of Eric Allan Lerner wishes to thank every one of you who cared about him. We are all so blessed to have known Eric.
