Eric Todd Forgrave

Eric Todd Forgrave, 54, of Glenford, Ohio, passed away on Thursday, April 18, 2024, after a battle with Pancreatic Cancer. Eric was born September 25, 1969, to the late Larry and Berneta (Stimmel) Forgrave. He was a graduate of Sheridan High School and had also attended Holy Trinity Catholic School. Eric worked at several jobs, retiring from Northern Local School District after over 25 years of service. Eric thoroughly enjoyed growing up on the farm where he learned many life lessons and really enjoyed his summers being able to slip away and go fishing. He had a never-ending passion for the local 4-H programs for his, and all kids learning the life skills taught throughout these programs. He would also never miss a tractor pull that he could participate in with his two beloved Massey Harris tractors which were his pride and joy. He will be missed by all who knew him, especially his jokes and the camaraderie with anyone who got to know him. Even through his illness, he stayed true to his sense of humor, coining the phrase his family will know as “Can you blame him?!!!” He is survived by his daughters, Sarah, Amber and Maddie; several grandchildren; his five brothers, Mike (Dawn), Dave (Kim), Bruce (LeAnn), Dennis (Lynne), and Jeff; numerous aunts, uncles, cousins, nieces and nephews. Friends may call from 1-4 p.m. Sunday, April 21, 2024, at the Bope-Thomas Funeral Home in Somerset. Services will be held at 11:00 a.m. Monday, April 22, 2024, at the Somerset Community Church, 139 E. Main St., Somerset, Ohio with the Rev. Karen Walters officiating. Burial will follow in Somerset Cemetery. Memorial contributions may be made to the Perry County Cancer Alliance, P.O. Box 724, New Lexington, Ohio 43764.
