Obituary of Lynn Dean Eagles

Lynn Dean Eagles, age 82, loving patriarch, handyman and collector, passed away March 19th, 2019 at St. Mary's of Saginaw. Born in Battle Creek Michigan, Lynn relocated, after serving in the US Army and graduating from Ferris State University, to Saginaw, Michigan where he set down roots and raised his family. Known for being a kind and generous person, Lynn touched the lives of many people around him for numerous decades. Working as a dental supply salesman, Lynn met the love of his life, Nancy. Through their love, Lynn and Nancy successfully merged their children into one large family. Lynn loved being a grandpa to his 10 grandkids and 1 great granddaughter. He taught his children the importance of always doing the right thing, giving to those less fortunate, and being thankful for everything. He always made sure to let his family know he loved them at the end every conversation. Walking into Lynn's house you were aware of just how unique a person he was. While most people his age might have an incomplete puzzle on a table, Lynn had a working telephone booth. Instead of piles of detective novels, Lynn had a pinball machine. Throughout his lifetime, Lynn served as the COO of the Curby Store, where he found and repurposed many treasures. Lynn is survived by his wife Nancy, their children Marc (Di- ane) Eagles, Patti Eagles, Gary (Lisa) Johnson, Todd (Andrea) Johnson, Matt (Tiffany) Ea- gles, and Janelle (Don) Delay; his grandkids Camillah Eagles, Elizabeth (Jason) Horrocks, Josh (Jennifer) Eagles, Nicholas (Clau) Junemann, Taylor Johnson, Elan Johnson, Calah Eagles, Graham Jones, Han- nah Eagles, Lucas Eagles and great granddaughter Olivia Eagles; his brothers Jack Eagles and Dan (Rosel) Eagles. In accordance with Lynn's wishes a cremation is scheduled, a memorial will be planned at a later date. In lieu of flowers please consider donating to Habitat for Humanity.
