In loving memory of a dearly loved, Dad, Grandad, Great Grandad, Great Great Grandad and faithful, loyal friend.
Eric Francis Joslin peacefully passed away in his sleep on 27th December 2020, aged 106 and half years, he passed of old age.
Eric was one of life’s gentlemen known for his determination and zest for life. Bringing laughter, sunshine and fairness to all who met him.
Serving as a pioneer in world war 2 with over 60 years dedication to the masons and much much more, he touched so many life’s and will be remembered fondly by all.
Sadly due to Covid the family have massively reduced the numbers attending the funeral. He will be taking his last journey from Boyce View Drive in Benfleet through to Tarpots and up to Sadlers roundabout across to Pitsea Cemetery.
Should you happen to see him on his last journey, we wish for smiles, claps and salutes in order to celebrate his amazing life.
He is resting currently at Stibbards and appointments should be made with them directly if you wish to pay your final respects
If you wish to watch the funeral on live stream as you cannot attend please message any of the family for the link.
Heartfelt Love
Jennifer, Emma, Helen & Julian

The personification of gentleman truly one of the greats it was an ultimate pleasure to have know you. I know you will be greatly missed by many and to those closest to you will have a huge void that will never be replaced. But should take comfort from the love of the greatest of gentlemen xx

Was a good friend to my Father David Roberts who we lost in 2018. Eric was an amazing man who always appeared younger than his impressive years! I’m sure they will both be able to have a catch up again xxx
