Obituary of Eric Rivers
Please share a memory of Eric to include in a keepsake book for family and friends.
South Plainfield – Eric Rivers, 60, passed away suddenly at his residence on Friday, April 10, 2020. He grew up in Colonia and in 1980, he married the love of his life, Maureen.
Eric enjoyed his time spent at his lake house on Swartswood Lake and loved going out on his boat. He was an avid NY Giants fan who loved going to games with his family and friends. He had a big heart who would help anyone, but his favorite time was when he was with his family and friends.
He is survived by his wife Maureen, daughter Shannen, son Todd, daughter-in-law Maggie, his sister Beth and her wife, Connie and his beloved four legged friends; his dogs Molly and Lucy.
Due to the current circumstances, a private service was held for Eric.
In lieu of flowers, please consider making a donation towards a memorial bench at Swartswood Lake, Eric's happy place. Once the COVID-19 restrictions are lifted, the family will share information on how to contribute for those that are interested.
