Franklin, NC: On January 26, 1979, Eric Steven Bolick was born to Larry H. and Arbutus Ann "Boots" Holland Bolick. He completed their family; and, from the very beginning, was also well loved by his brother, Larry, and his sister, Missy. In return, he absolutely adored his parents and siblings and was grateful for growing up in a family with a wonderful heritage of faith. Knowing Eric meant knowing his love for and his commitment to Jesus. He had a servant's heart and would do anything he could for anyone at any time. A student of Andrew Wommack's ministry, Eric enjoyed studying God's word and sharing his faith and understanding. As pastor of First Pentecost Church in Franklin, NC, for the last four years of his life, he proved to be a seasoned leader who taught his congregation about discipleship. Under his leadership, the church grew not only in knowledge but also in number. While Jesus was first in Eric's heart, his wife, Courtney, and their daughter, Reagan, definitely came in second. They were a very close-knit family unit. He liked sharing what he had learned, and they studied the Bible together regularly. Eric loved to hunt and fish with Reagan and had bragging rights to scoring an 8-point the first time he hunted deer. Eric also loved the family pup, Coco, who kept him entertained and whose claim to fame is being an Andy Griffith fan. Eric was just plain smart and was very mechanically minded with the ability to fix almost anything that had a motor. He was a great friend. He was dependable, kind, and fun to be with. Eric passed from this life on June 3, 2022. He was very dear to many people and will be greatly missed. Left with wonderful memories, along with Eric's parents, is his wife, Courtney Davis Bolick; his daughter, Reagan D. Bolick; his sister, Melissa Bolick Knibbs of Franklin, NC; his brother, Larry A. Bolick (Liana), also of Franklin, and several nieces and nephews. He was preceded in death by his brother-in-law, Scott Knibbs. A Celebration of Life will be held on Friday, June 10, at 11:00 a.m. at Cullasaja Assembly of God. Luke Bateman, Eddie Bateman and Rev. Forest Jones will officiate. Eric's family will visit with friends after the service in the church's fellowship hall. "Precious in the sight of the Lord is the death of His saints."-Psalm 116:15 Moffitt Family Funeral Care is honored to serve Eric's family.
