Eric attended Judson ISD and began playing the trombone in middle school and continued through high school where many of his lifelong friendships were made. Because of his musical talent he was given the name of Mr. Trombone from his middle school music teacher. Eric’s love for music continued throughout his life with Techno being his favorite. He graduated from Judson High School in 1994 and continued his education at San Antonio College to study nursing. Eric decided that nursing was not the chosen path for him and entered the food industry. He spent the last 15 years at Bill Millers where his coworkers became more like family to him.
Eric will be remembered as a sweet and gentle soul. He was always so kind and generous and could fill a room with laughter and his laughter would fill a room with joy. He will be missed by all that knew him and we are so grateful for all the memories we shared with him.
Eric is preceded in death by his father Arturo (Arthur) Arreola and his nephew Caleb Arreola.
Eric is survived by his loving mother Mary Arreola, his brother Phillip Arreola, and his nephew Christian Arreola. He is also survived by numerous aunts, uncles, cousins and friends; all of who loved Eric very much.
A visitation for Eric will be held Tuesday, December 13, 2022 from 5:00 PM to 7:00 PM at Colonial Funeral Home, 625 Kitty Hawk Road, Universal City, TX 78148, followed by a rosary from 7:00 PM to 7:30 PM.
