STREET, Eric Darrell, departed this life on Thursday, Feb. 5, 2009, at Ochsner Foundation Medical Center in New Orleans. He was born in Chicago on July 7, 1947, to the late Edward and Evelyn Gray Street. Eric was baptized at an early age at Our Lady of Lourdes Catholic Church in Chicago. At the time of his death, he was a member of the St. Peter United Methodist Church in Clinton, where he served faithfully. Eric was a resident of Zachary and former graduate of the U.S. Navy's Electronic Technician "A" School. He joined the U.S. Navy in 1966 and was commissioned to serve on the USS Benjamin Franklin nuclear submarine. One of only two African-Americans aboard the ship, Eric served as an electronic technician and nuclear reactor operator for eight years. After an honorable discharge from the U.S. Navy, he worked for several private firms in Chicago, including IBM and Xerox. His last employer was Dick Roundtree Copiers of Baton Rouge, where he served as service manager and vice president until his health failed. His lifestyle was gentle and he touched the hearts of many. If you ever met him, you would never forget him. He made an unforgettable impact on those who knew and loved him. "Baba," as his grandchildren passionately knew him, was a "giver." He gave generously to many local and national charities, as well as providing services to St. Vincent de Paul. Through all of his generosity and humility, his greatest love was "family." Eric leaves to cherish fond memories a loving and devoted wife, Sharon Carter Street, of Zachary; four children, Michelle Nix, of Dallas, Eric Darrell Street II and wife Deidre, of Baton Rouge, Doria Telsa and husband Bernard, of Cedar Hill, Texas, and April Street, of Grand Prairie, Texas; three sisters, Maria Bijou and husband William, and Evelynn Street, all of Chicago, and Chelsia Street, of Dallas; brother, Edward Street Jr., of Nashville, Texas; four aunts, an uncle, six grandchildren, former wife, three surrogate daughters, five sisters-in-law, four brothers-in-law, numerous nieces and nephews, and a host of other relatives and friends. His parents, a brother and a granddaughter, preceded him in death. Visitation at Richardson's Funeral Home, Clinton, on Wednesday, Feb. 11, from 4 p.m. to 8 p.m. Funeral service at St. Peter United Methodist Church, Clinton, on Thursday at 11 a.m., officiated by the Rev. Clark L. Clark, and eulogy by the Rev. David Carter Sr. Interment in the church cemetery. Funeral arrangements entrusted to Richardson Funeral Home, 11816 Jackson St., (225) 683-5222.
