Wales: Eric D. Curboy, age 40, of 47 Stafford Holland Rd., passed away suddenly on Friday, October 31st, at the Baystate Medical Center, Springfield.

He leaves his soul mate and love of his life Katie Angers and their 5 children, Layla Rain, Ella Sage, Dylan River, Gavin Forest, and Nicholas Talon all of Wales. Eric and Katie met in high school at 15 years old and never looked back. He would tell you his greatest joy and accomplishment in life was his children and life he built with Katie.

Along with Katie and their children he leaves his mother, Linda Koslowski and stepfather Willam Koslowski of Wales; his two brothers, Travis Koslowski of Brimfield and Matt Koslowski of Southbridge; his sister, Jessica Sivula Koslowski of Holland; his father and mother in law, Richard and Marie Angers of Sturbridge; his nieces and nephews, who he adored, Jack, Bella, Addylin, Gianna, Walker and Willow; and many aunts and uncles, especially his Aunt Lynda Garieri of Sturbridge who he had a special bond. Eric was predeceased by his father John Trombley and his grandparents George Trombley and Janet Faxon Ryczek. He was born in Worcester on August 30, 1985.

Eric worked many years for Northern Tree in Palmer as a bucket truck operator where he made many long and lasting friendships.

He loved being with his family out in nature, music, fishing, camping in Maine and collecting all kinds of rocks and sports with his boys. He would be the first parent at games or concerts cheering on his children and everyone else's children.

Eric had a personality that just brought people together. He was always the first one there if you needed anything.

Eric will be missed by so many but especially his wife and children that were his world. We will always carry you in our hearts "Love you for ever and ever and again and again".

A celebration of Eric's life for family and friends to gather and share memory of Eric will be held on Saturday, November 8th, from 12:00 to 4:00pm at Hyland Orchard and Events, 199 Arnold Rd., Sturbridge, MA.

Please dress appropriately for the weather. One special request from his children is to wear something tie-dye.
