In loving memory, we honor the remarkable life of Eric Pichon, born July 24, 1967, in the vibrant city of Los Angeles, California.
Eric departed this world peacefully on Feb 3, 2026, leaving behind a legacy of love, laughter, and unwavering devotion to his cherished family and friends.
Eric was the beloved son of Diane Goodrich (mother) Marcel and Amy Pichon (father and mom), who instilled in him a deep sense of family values and compassion. He was predeceased by his dear grandmother Eve Carpenter, whose gentle spirit and work ethic influenced his kindness and warmth.
A man of many talents and interests, Eric wore numerous hats throughout his career, from owning car dealerships and auto detailing businesses to serving as a chef/nutritionist at a local hospital.
Wherever he went, he brought with him a unique energy and a natural gift for connecting with people. His professional endeavors were only a fraction of what defined him; his true passion lay in the bonds he nurtured with those around him.
Eric’s heart belonged to his family, who were his pride and joy. His brothers David and Marcel, cousin and brother John, and closest friend and brother Charlie were his lifelong companions.
His girlfriend Nicole brought love and light into his life, and though their time together was relatively short, their connection was deep and profound.
Eric’s spirit will forever live on in the hearts of his nephews and niece Marc, Charlene (Kai and Zia), Matthew and Xander; and his distant cousins from the Chism, St. Mary, and Faciane families.
His commitment to family extended beyond mere words. Eric’s home in Orofino was a testament to his dedication, where he took immense pride in creating a haven filled with love and laughter.
He cherished the time spent caring for his mother Diane, and ensuring that family gatherings were filled with joy and camaraderie.
Eric’s love for outdoor sports and fishing were a testament to his adventurous spirit, yet nothing compared to the fulfillment he found in the presence of his loved ones.
Eric’s membership in local gyms, wherever he resided, spoke to his commitment to health and his vibrant spirit. His love for fitness was only matched by his love for people, and he was truly appreciated by all who knew him during his time in Orofino.
A private funeral ceremony will be held to honor Eric’s life. The family will soon organize a memorial and celebration of life, sharing the details with ample notice, so all who held him dear may gather to remember and celebrate the beautiful life he lived.
Eric Pichon will forever be remembered for his kindness, generosity, laughter and strength.
His legacy will be a guiding light for those he leaves behind, a reminder of the profound impact one person can have on the lives of others. May his memory be a blessing to us all.
