Eric J Reifler, 51 passed away September 13, 2025 after complications from his Myotonic Muscular Dystrophy.

Before his illness progressed, he was an avid bowler. He delivered pizza for many years for Pizza Hut and then Papa Johns. Eric loved playing cards, doing jigsaw puzzles, and going to bingo with his family. He loved watching movies, which he had many. His favorite team was the New York Yankees which he watched every game and sometimes got to go to the games in person. He was a little stubborn sometimes but was a very good son and father.

Eric is predeceased by his brother Steve, who passed away less than a year ago. Eric is survived by his son Kyle, who has been a great help to his father. Eric is also survived by his parents Doug and Barbara Reifler of Binghamton, Siblings Dougie and Kelli Reifler, Michael and Wendy Reifler all of Atlanta, Georgia and June Roby (forever friend of brother Steven). He leaves behind Aunt Laura Zakrajsek of Windsor and several cousins, nieces, and nephews.

Eric we love you always and will miss you every day.
