Above all, Eric was a devoted and loving husband to his wife, Helen Corkhill, and a proud father to his daughters, Katherine Barthelmeh (Brandon) and Emily Corkhill (Joe Shapiro). He cherished his role as a grandfather to Audrey and Graham and shared a special bond with his sister, Cindy Dautrich, as well as his niece and nephew, Cinda Johnson and Chris Dautrich.
