About Obituary Overview
Eric George Wittenberg
January 11, 1954 – August 28, 2024

It is with profound sadness our family announces the sudden passing of Eric, our rock and main man. He leaves to cherish his memory his loving wife of 33 years, Glennis, son Jayden, daughter Kendall (Dylan) and grandson Pierce, extended family, countless friends and business associates.

Eric was a devoted husband and exceptional father, always making time for his family and friends. If you needed a coach or manager, Eric was your man. If you needed fundraising to support a cause, Eric was your contact. If you needed a favor, he was always just a call away. Eric had a heart of gold and was always in tune with people’s needs. He was always willing to assist in any manner possible, donating his time, his repertoire of different talents or financial support.

He proudly owned and operated Alliance Investments Manitoba Ltd. and until July 2021, Royal LePage Alliance Real Estate Brokerage. Eric’s vast knowledge in property management and real estate is surpassed by very few. He loved mentoring his real estate agents and watching them grow and succeed. He was always proud of his company’s accomplishments but never forgetting, he would say … “When the agents succeed, the company succeeds”.

Eric was an uber talented guy. He enjoyed life to the fullest. He was an accomplished toast master, downhill skier, deep sea diver, magician, paintball player, pool player, golfer and gamer. In his younger years he had his pilot’s license and owned his own small aircraft. Eric never did anything halfway but instead was always full steam ahead to ensure he excelled at what he was doing. His accomplishments were many and we were always very proud of him.

He loved golfing at St. Charles Country Club and getting away from the wintry weather to golf in Arizona, always enjoying dinner and drinks on the patio after a game. Eric entertained many friends and guests, and always loved telling humorous stories while relaxing with a good scotch and a cigar.

Although Eric is gone, he left his mark on this world and many memories in our hearts. We will forever miss him.

A Celebration of Life will take place on Wednesday, September 11, 2024, 2:00 pm at Chapel Lawn Funeral Home, 4000 Portage Avenue, Winnipeg. For anyone wishing to view the livestream of the service, please use the link provided below:

Perhaps they are not stars in the sky, but rather openings where our loved ones shine down to let us know they are happy.
