Eric William Stoiber departed this world Saturday, June 27, 2015 and is now at eternal peace. He loved his family and will be sorely missed by his loving wife Jana Johnson Stoiber and his daughters, Megan Stoiber Pierce (Todd) and Sarah Elizabeth Stoiber. Eric was born in Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania December 3, 1959. He graduated from R. Nelson Snider High School in Fort Wayne, Indiana and completed his B.S. Degree at Ball State University in Muncie, Indiana. He worked for Dana Corporation in Fort Wayne before moving to Little Rock, where he worked at Bailey Properties, LLC for 20 years. He held the title of Executive Vice President and was respected by his colleagues for his contributions during his tenure with the company. Eric had a keen sense of how things worked and was the ultimate fix-it man. His garage was his haven where he spent hours working on projects. He had a passion for Corvettes and enjoyed rebuilding many to their original state. His soft-hearted nature and compassion for others made him always willing to lend a hand. He travelled to Honduras on two different occasions to help build a school for the community. These were life changing experiences for him. Eric was a devoted Catholic and member of Christ the King Catholic Church. In his personal life, Eric valued his time traveling with Jana and his girls. He enjoyed Indy and Nascar racing. As an avid animal lover, he took pleasure in spoiling his cocker spaniels. In addition to his wife, Jana, and daughters Megan (Todd) of Richmond, Va. and Sarah of Fayetteville, Ark., Eric is survived by his mother, Patricia Stoiber of Little Rock, Ark. and five siblings: Edward Stoiber (Shelly) Mesquite, Nev., David Stoiber (Marsha) Waupaca, Wis., Judi Emerson, Lilburn, Ga., Patti Bailey (John) and Mary Jo Suski, (Steve) both of Little Rock, Ark. and a host of nieces and nephews. He is preceded by his father, Edward William Stoiber. Eric is loved by all his family and friends and will be deeply missed.
