Eric A. Richie, 26, of Marion

Eric A. RichieEric A. Richie, age 26, of Marion, died Sunday, December 8, 2013 after injuries sustained from an automobile accident.

Eric was born on January 7, 1987 in Marion.

Prior to working for the Royal Group, Eric worked for J LEN CO and U.S.Y.

Eric’s upmost joy in life was his children, everything he did was for them.  He loved helping others and often put their needs in front of his own.  He was the best son, father, uncle, brother and friend anyone could ask for.  He was always a phone call away.  In his free time he enjoyed working on cars, racing on the track, and doing tricks on his bike.

He was such an amazing person and touched so many lives; he will truly be missed.

Eric is survived by parents, Randall R. Frazier and Carolyn S. Richie; daughters, Arieona L. and Kindall P. Richie; son, Carsyn C. Baker-Richie; stepson, Kaden T Flagg; sister, Rachel A. Richie-Hill; grandmother, Peggy Richie; nephews, Kollin and Kaden Hill; and several aunts, uncles, and cousins.

We can find some comfort knowing you are racing the ultimate EVO in heaven and watching over us all.  Take care of him Grandpa Richie.
