Eric Crawford Adams, 65, of Winslow, passed away January 5, 2026. He was born on January 10, 1960, in Rahway, NJ.

Eric worked as a metal fabricator and welder for 40 years.

He is preceded in death by his parents Archie and Eleanor Adams, and brother, Howard Sanderson.

He is survived by his daughter Kristina Chandler and husband Josh of Highfill, AR; brother Nelson Adams of Winslow, AR; sisters, Donna Mounce of West Fork, AR and Linda Temple of Winfield Park, NJ; and six grandchildren.

Eric had a lifelong passion for viewing and collecting classic cars and motorcycles. This was something he shared with his father. After high school they both took an adult education class to learn how to upholstery a motorcycle seat, this started a career in automotive upholstery that he worked at for several years.

Eric also loved to hunt, each year planning his vacation time to coincide with opening muzzleloader and rifle deer seasons. This activity was shared with many of his close friends.

Eric also had a special animal friend “Peanut” a manx cat that he called his buddy.  “Peanut” was always curled up, near him when Eric was inside or watching him work when they were outside.

The family will receive friends for a memorial service at 2:00 PM, Monday, January 12, 2026 at Beard’s Funeral Chapel.
