Litchfield Park, Arizona - Jon Eric Wohler, known to most as Eric, passed away on June 4, 2026, at the age of 58. He was born on January 15, 1968, in Wadsworth, Ohio, and moved to Litchfield Park, Arizona at the age of 12, where he spent most of his life.
He is survived by his wife, Kristen Gentry Wohler; his children, Eva Grace, Amanda Rene', and James Robert; and his parents, Janice and Jack Wohler.
Eric was a longtime member of the Wigwam Country Club in Litchfield Park, where he was involved for many years and held various leadership roles. He was well known within the community and maintained many connections there over time, including helping charter the Mavericks and contributing to a successful fundraising golf tournament.
He enjoyed the outdoors and shared many adventures with family and friends, including fishing, hunting, hiking, and off-roading. Whether in the desert or the mountains, Eric was always ready to go.
His father shared this memory: "After we moved to Arizona, Eric and I played golf together regularly. After just a few rounds, he beat me by a substantial amount. It was one of his happiest days—and, though I didn't say it at the time, one of mine as well."
A service will be held on Thursday at 2:00 PM at the Church at Litchfield Park, with a reception to follow at the Wigwam.
