Eric Michael Melton, 24, passed away unexpectedly on Tuesday, January 26, 2021.

Eric was born on March 24, 1996, in Great Falls, Montana. He graduated in 2014 from Great Falls High School. Post high school, he joined his second family and started a great career with The Other Guys Wood Flooring where he worked until his passing. He was the proud father of Connor and Ben Melton. He dreamed of the day he could share with them his passions of hunting and fishing.

Many knew Eric for his bright smile and infectious laughter. He had an incredible love for Montana and the outdoors. Every weekend you could catch Eric chasing elk and deer or spending many hours on the riverbanks fishing for walleye, but not trout because they “taste terrible.”
