Eric Vrem Obituary


VREM, Eric

Passed away on May 10th, at the age of 66, with his mother and son by his side.

He was a hard working man, with a high level of discipline and attention to detail. His greatest hobby was restoring old cars. His proudest was a 1957 Chevy Nomad, which he completed last year and showed at the Fallbrook Vintage Car Show. He also enjoyed snorkeling and scuba diving.

Eric served our country by joining the Navy at the age of 22, with one year of training, two years active duty, and three years in the reserves.

He is survived by his mother, Ruth; son, Chris; and sisters, Candace, Tobi, Vicki, and Toni.

Eric's ashes will be interred this Saturday, June 4th at 4pm, at Fairmount Memorial Park at 5200 W Wellesley, Spokane. All are welcome to come honor him with a few words or simply say farewell.

To plant trees in memory, please visit the Sympathy Store.
