Eric graduated from Fort LeBoeuf High School. He was a heavy equipment operator, previously working for Joseph McCormick Construction. Eric was a Dallas Cowboys and St. Louis Cardinals fan and liked 4-wheelers and snowmobiles.

He was preceded in death by his grandparents, Joseph and Gertrude Balter and Earl and Iris Carr.

Eric was a wonderful son, father and brother who lost his battle to addiction.

I miss you brother tell ya what life isn´t what we thought it would be as kids! But there isn´t a day that passes I don´t think of you! I love you bro!
