Mr. Eric James Boatman, 45, of Grenada, passed away Saturday, April 16, 2022 at the University of Mississippi Medical Center – Grenada.  He was born June 8, 1976 in Grenada to Ennis Edward "Sonny" Boatman, Jr. and Penny Spurlock Boatman.  Eric had worked for a number of years as a window glazer at Boatman's Glass Works alongside his cousin whom he loved like a brother, Shawn Boatman.  While Eric's passing leaves a hole in the hearts of those who knew and loved him, we take comfort in knowing he is no longer in pain and free from sickness.
