A Great Greek passed to the beyond.
I was notified by Erik Conards sister Grace, that Erik Conard passed away Oct. 31 morning.
Knowing Erik as I did, I am sure he would have gotten a chuckle over this.
While many did not like him for his outspoken wording and words, He was worth so much more to the Greek World than many realize.
He helped promote many Greek Organizations on new Campi whether it be Fraternal or Sorortal.
Erik was a very proud member of Tau Kappa Epsilon but still worked for all of us.
Please give a thought to his family and the Greek World.

Even though there were plenty of differences, he still was a good person to hear out...

My condolences to the Conrad familly and TKE brotherhood. He had a wealth of knowledge of all-things-Greek that we wish we knew.

I was concerned that he hadn't posted in a long time, because of the poor health he was in. I am saddened, yet hope that Eric is at peace now, and free from the hardships he endured in his latter years. May he rest in peace in the Chapter Eternal.

Agree with him or not, Erik was a loyal fraternity man and one of the most knowledgable I've ever run across.
Rest In Peace, Brother Greek.

Thanks for letting us know, Tom. I had actually thought about PMing you recently to see if he was having more health troubles, since we hadn't heard from him in so long.
TKE has lost a loyal brother, and he could certainly keep things interesting around here.
May he rest in peace.
