He was preceded in death by his beautiful wife of 51 years, Glenda Sue Bourdon, in November 2007.

Eric graduated high school from Castle Heights Military Academy in Lebanon, Tennessee, and college from the California State University at Fresno. He worked for Los Angeles County for 24 years, his last position as the Director of Harbors and Beaches.

Eric and Sue retired to Prescott in 1992, enjoyed an active lifestyle, and made many friends in the community. He enjoyed playing tennis, hunting, and spending time with his family and friends.

The family wishes to thank Dr. Joseph Griffin, Good Samaritan Hospice, and all the staff at Highgate Assisted Living Facility who took such great care of our father.
