Egan, Ross Edward, 55, of Placentia, CA passed away Wednesday, September 25th with family at his side.
Ross was born in Redondo Beach, CA, on January 26, 1958, the son of Thomas and Mary Ann Egan. He graduated from Garden Grove High School in 1976, and later attended Cal State University, Fullerton. Ross married Diem Trang Huyen in 1999. Although they divorced several years later, she remains a cherished member of the family.
Ross worked in Revenue Protection for United Parcel Service for a large part of his career, and considered his time with UPS his most enjoyable work experience.
He participated in football during his high school years, and continued to be a fan of many sports. A sport fishing trip to Cabo San Lucas saw Ross land an impressive marlin. Another highlight of his life was taking his father to the seventh game of the 2002 World Series with his favorite team, the Angels. He even tried sky diving in his 40's, but told his family he'd done it only after he was back on solid ground. He researched, created and posted an exhaustive family history on his Facebook page.
For the last several years of his life, Ross shared the family home with his mother in Placentia, following his father's passing in 2009. He is survived by his mother, Mary Ann, and brother, Dave.
Plans for a memorial service are pending.
