Veterans of Foreign Wars Post 2319

Eric A. Dean, of Old Bridge, passed away Saturday, January 8, 2022 at Raritan Bay

Hackensack Hospital in Old Bridge. He was 90. Born in Venezuela, he grew up in

Puerto Rico. He lived in the Bronx before moving to Old Bridge NJ 49 years ago.

 

Eric served in the United States Army during the Korean War. For many years he served as a quartermaster at the VFW Clark-Moetz Post 2319 in Milltown. He was proudly elected to commander.

He retired from Primerica, where he taught financial services. Previously he had a 17-year career as a

distribution manager for Bristol Meyer Squibb in New Brunswick NJ.

 

Eric was a communicant of St. Thomas the Apostle RC Church in Old Bridge.

His two passions were helping others. He would stay up many nights behind the computer working with his students via video chat. Nothing made him happier than a student passing the state exam.

The other passion was laughing & smiling. Everyone who knew Eric, will attest to that.

In lieu of flowers, Eric Dean would have appreciated contributions be made to VFW Clark-Moetz Post 2319 in Milltown N.J. 
Thank you for your support.
