He was born on January 10, 1955, in St. Joseph, Mo. to Luther and Lois Carter of Plattsburg. He grew up in Plattsburg and went on to graduate from Plattsburg High School, 1973. After graduation, he attended Missouri Western State College, St. Joseph, Mo. where he received a Bachelor of Science Degree in Accounting. 

Eric was married on November 25, 1983, to Diana Pace, St. Joseph, Mo. She survives of the home. From this union they were blessed with two children, Erica Hardy (John), Denver, North Carolina; Zoe Carter with Tony Ambriz of Kansas City, Mo. and grandchildren George and Eloise Hardy.
