Eric J Kuckhoff

On the morning of March 1st 2022, Eric Kuckhoff passed away at his home in Kingston, Georgia. Eric’s professional prowess extended to Polystar LLC–the specialty chemical company of Dalton, Georgia, which he founded; Cargill and the Rochester Institute of Technology–where he served on the Board of Trustees. In the world of chemistry, where the entrepreneurial spirit is key, Eric’s character and credibility built the kind of relationships that fostered deep friendships and mutual success. Throughout his journey, Eric lived truly, loved unapologetically and lifted those around him to rise above their aspirations. Eric is survived by his wife (Barbara), mother (Doris), brother (Stephen), and his three children Thomas (Sara), Robert, and Katherine –each living examples of his love for life and gift of friendship.

Eric will be honored at St. Peter’s Episcopal Church in Rome, Georgia on Saturday, March 5th, at 12 o’clock noon.
