Eric Daniel Norville

Eric Daniel Norville, born on January 10, 1982, in Detroit, Michigan, passed away on November 10, 2025. He was a devoted father, son, brother, and friend. He was a good father to his daughter, Tatiana, and she was his pride and joy.

Throughout his life, Eric was very friendly and could talk to anyone, which was evidenced by being an usher at Oak Pointe Church in Novi, and he was always willing to help anyone out. He had an adventurous spirit, whether it was taking Tatiana on a memorable trip to Gatlinburg, Tennessee or sharing childhood escapades with his brothers. He recalled the mischief of climbing up on and playing on the roof of their house that brought surprise to their mother years later.

His passions were as varied as his interests. A lover of the cowboy lifestyle, he found joy in riding bulls and spending time with horses, sometimes taking Tatiana horseback riding, which created lasting memories between them. His love for his dog, Dingas, spoke volumes about his kind-heartedness, while his enthusiasm for working at the carnival showcased his adventurous spirit. An avid fan of adventure TV shows, Eric enjoyed the thrill of adventure.

Eric also took pride in earning his commercial trucker's license, which allowed him to enjoy the freedom of the open road while driving large semi-trucks.

He is survived by his beloved daughter, Tatiana Bennett; his mother, Carolyn (Bob) Bell; his father, Stephen (Penny) Norville; two brothers, Nicholas (Elizabeth) Norville and Benjamin (Alexandra) Norville; and his grandmother, Norma Elvera Brown. Eric was preceded in death by his grandfather, William Arnold Brown, and his grandparents, Larry and Nell Norville.
