He was born July 2, 1946 to Betty and Raymond Eagan in St Paul, Minnesota. Life before his retirement consisted of working in the maintenance department first for St. Paul Brass and then for Northern WholeSale. He loved being a maintenance mechanic, fixing boilers, customizing workstations and building things to make his coworkers’ jobs easier.

His hobbies included gardening, woodworking and riding his Harley. He will be deeply missed by his family as well as his friends at NWS and FLSOTG.

He is preceded in death by his parents Betty and Raymond; brother Larry and his four-legged best friend Tipper.

He is survived by his girlfriend, Dawn Babin; brother, Ron (Barbara); nephew, Ron Jr.; niece, Tiffany Beach (Joe); two great nieces, and a great nephew.

We would like to extend a special thank you to Melissa, Laurie, JoAnne, Kathy, Renee, Bev and the rest of the HealthEast Hospice Team. Their amazing care made passing away peacefully at home possible.
