Eric D Robertson
February 3, 1964 - February 21, 2017
Center Barnstead, New Hampshire | Age 53

Eric Robertson, 53, of Center Barnstead, New Hampshire, went to be with the Lord on February 21, 2017 at Wentworth Douglas Hospital after a 13 year battle with prostate cancer surrounded by his loving family.

Eric was born in Springfield, MO on February 3, 1964 as the third of four children to his parents Dale and Rachel Robertson. He spent many happy days on his grandparents dairy farm in Ozark, MO. Eric graduated from Ozark High School and then went on to enlist in the U.S. Army. He enrolled in the ROTC program at Pittsburg State College in Kansas where he played basketball and rugby. After graduation Eric went on to successfully complete Officers Basic Course. He completed his service in U.S. Army in Indianapolis, IN as a Second Lieutenant. While in Indianapolis he met his future wife Wendy Lezette. The couple married in October of 1988 and then went on to move to New Hampshire where they raised their two children, Sydney and Zachariah.

Eric was well known within the state for his almost 30 years of work with the troubled youth of New Hampshire as a Juvenile Probation and Parole Officer. At the age of 38, Eric went on to also become a part-time police officer for the town of Freedom and then moved on to a 12 year police career with his home town of Barnstead. Due to his medical status, Eric was forced to retire in November of 2016.

Eric had a true passion for helping those around him. He loved working with the troubled youth of New Hampshire and helping them to go on to realize their full potential in life. Eric was a devoted husband and father. Eric was a Christian and had a huge passion for the Lord that he wasn't afraid to share with others. He was much loved by those around him for the amazingly caring person that he was and will be missed by all. Eric has been such a positive influence on those around him and will continue to do so from Heaven. His profound story telling ability will be sorely missed.

Eric is survived by his wife Wendy of Center Barnstead, children Sydney and Zachariah (Center Barnstead), his parents Dale and Rachel Robertson (Missouri), his sister Lori and her children Markus and Pehr (Sweden), sister Julie, her husband Ron, and their son Max (Georgia), and younger brother Tim, his wife Melissa, and their daughters Stella and Sophie (Missouri).

In lieu of flowers, donations can be made to the Seacoast Cancer Center at Wentworth Douglas in Dover, New Hampshire. To make donations to the Seacoast Cancer Center please call 603-742-8787.
