Eric Robinson Obituary
With profound sadness, we announce the passing of Eric Robinson, aged 47, on December 13, 2024. Eric was a cherished son, brother, uncle, brother-in-law, and friend, as well as a genuinely kind resident of Meriden, CT.
Eric was born in Portland, OR; son of David and JoeAnn Robinson. He was a graduate of Maloney High School in Meriden, CT and then received his bachelor's degree from Ithaca College in Ithaca, NY. He was a proud employee of Lyman Products Corporation in Middletown, CT. He had a passion for movies, comic books, music, superheroes, animals and reading and he enriched the lives of those around him with his compassion and humor. His sense of humor was one of a kind. Eric loved all of his nieces and nephews and was always willing to spend hours of quality time playing board games, video games or just running around outside with them.
Eric is survived by his parents, David and JoeAnn Robinson, from Meriden, CT; his siblings, Jeff (Lindsay Folsom) Robinson of Somers, CT, Brian (Chelsea) Robinson of Lugoff, SC, and Lindsey (Adam) Golden of Meriden, CT. Besides his parents and siblings, he is survived by his seven nieces, three nephews, and many loving aunts, uncles and supportive friends.
Details regarding the date and location of the memorial service will be announced at a later time. In lieu of flowers, the family kindly requests donations to be made to either the CT Circle of Hope American Foundation for Suicide Prevention or the Meriden Humane Society.
Eric will be dearly missed and forever remembered by all who knew him.

Dear JoeAnn, David, and family,
Tom and I send our deepest sympathies on the passing of Eric. We sent a card, but it was returned because I must have an old mailing address. We made a donation to AFSP in Eric´s memory. With love, Daryl Fitzgibbons

Eric was an amazing friend who also shared a love of animals. We had some great conversations talking about all kinds of animals especially cats and dogs. Eric always took the time to lisiten to my crazy cat stories. You will always be in my thoughts and prayers.

Worked with Eric the last 5 years. Couldn´t have asked for a better coworker and friend. Tough to find someone with same sense of humor as myself but I found him! Memories will last forever. We will miss you my friend.
