Eric Johnson

Eric Johnson was a 32-year-old man from Pine Bluff, Arkansas. Public records and contemporary incident listings identify June 24, 2016 as the date on which he was fatally shot in Pine Bluff; community memory and local incident trackers note his age and the Dollarway-area location associated with the event.

While an exact, family-published obituary matching the name and date could not be located in accessible online obituary indexes, local reporting and local incident memorial records confirm that Eric was a real person whose death affected friends, neighbors and the Pine Bluff community. Online memorials include brief tributes from people who knew him and remember him by nickname and neighborhood associations, indicating he was known within his circle and that his loss was felt personally by those who knew him.

Because formal, family-authored obituary text is not available in the public sources reviewed, this remembrance focuses on Eric’s presence in Pine Bluff and the human reality behind the public record: he lived among neighbors, had ties to the Dollarway area, and mattered to people who posted short remembrances online. Those brief messages—candles lit on memorial pages and short personal comments—reflect a common response to sudden loss: friends and community members recalling a name, a face, a shared street or school memory.

This page honors Eric Johnson as a person first. He was a member of a Pine Bluff community whose life had value beyond any public record of how he died. The details the public record preserves are limited; where family-published remembrances exist, they should take precedence. If you are a family member or close friend and can share material for a fuller, family-approved memorial — verified biographical details, photographs, or a formal obituary — those additions would help make this remembrance truer to Eric’s life and the people who loved him.
