Eric Rojas Obituary
Eric Brandon Rojas passed away on May 27, 2025, at the age of 58 in Knoxville, TN. He was born in Chicago, IL. Eric loved working on his guns and motorcycle; we could always find him on the back porch tinkering away. He also loved cooking and exploring the world; however, more than anything else, he loved his family: Alicia, the kids, and grandkids.
Eric is preceded in death by his mother Judy Blackwell Rojas, sister Lisa English Quave, paternal grandparents Emmanuel Rojas and Gracia Rojas, and maternal grandparents Jewell Willis and Wayne Blackwell. He is survived by his wife Alicia Resendez Rojas; children Jocelyn (Piere) Pigott, Michael Rojas, Rebecca Resendez, Donovan Rojas, and Gabrielle Rojas; grandchildren Jeremih Pigott, Malakai Pigott, Josih Pigott, and Sarih Pigott; father Eric C. Rojas; sister Aimee Rojas; and nieces and nephews Kenneth Quave, Ava George, and Adeline George.
Eric, you are so loved and will be severely missed.
A Celebration of Life for Eric will be held at a later date.
