Di sela kegiatannya, Eril memutuskan untuk menikmati suasana dan juga alam dengan berenang di sungai Aare. Tak sendiri, Eril berenang bersama saudaranya, namun nahas Eril harus hanyut terbawa arus deras sungai saat sedang berenang.
Sungai Aare, tempat di mana Eril menghembuskan nafas terakhirnya, kini menjadi saksi bisu dari doa dan penghormatan yang dilakukan oleh Ridwan Kamil. Kepergian Eril tentu meninggalkan duka yang mendalam bagi keluarga dan teman-temannya.
Meski telah dua tahun kepergian Emmeril Kahn Mumtadz, namun Ridwan Kamil tetap mengenang sang putra dalam memori indahnya.
