REMEMBERING ERIC POMEROY
______
HON. JOHN GARAMENDI
of california
in the house of representatives
Friday, October 21, 2022
Mr. GARAMENDI. Madam Speaker, I rise today to honor the life and lasting contributions of Eric Michael Pomeroy.
Passing away far too soon at the age of 54, Mr. Pomeroy leaves behind an indelible legacy in the education and wider community in Yuba City.
Mr. Pomeroy was a lifetime resident of the Yuba-Sutter community who served his community with sincere devotion and joy. Mr. Pomeroy devoted 24 years of his life to education including 10 years as a teacher for CTE, Academic, and Alternative Education, and 14 years as an educational administrator. As the Assistant Superintendent of Career and Adult Education for the Sutter County Superintendent of Schools, Mr. Pomeroy oversaw Sutter County One Stop, Tri-County ROP, Sutter County Adult Education, and North Central Counties Consortium. Throughout his career, Mr. Pomeroy worked ceaselessly to create opportunities for students and provide a supportive environment for educators.
Mr. Pomeroy was a lifelong volunteer across the Yuba-Sutter community. He served as a board member of Yuba-Sutter-Colusa United Way and was a former member of the Rotary and Kiwanis Clubs. His passion for swimming led him to serve as not only the President and Head Coach of Sutter Buttes Swimming, but also a Special Olympics Swim Coach. Mr. Pomeroy also served as a CCA official for Sierra Nevada and officiated for the CCA swim team in Roseville. In all these endeavors, Mr. Pomeroy believed in finding the joy and humor in life--always searching to do what was right.
Mr. Pomeroy is survived by his wife of 15 years, Daniela, and two loving daughters, Erica and Gianna. His family and the Yuba-Sutter community will dearly miss his joyful and adventurous spirit. I would like to extend my deepest sympathies to Mr. Pomeroy's loved ones. I know that they, along with the entire Yuba-Sutter community, join me in celebrating his life and legacy.
