Brian Conklin Obituary

Obituary published on Legacy.com by McGeehan Funeral Homes Martin Chapel in Chesaning on Jun. 4, 2024.
Brian Charles Conklin of Chesaning died on May 31st 2024, at the age of 62. He passed away at Sparrow Hospital, surrounded by loved ones. He was born on January 29th, 1962, to Rita and Charles Conklin. Brian was an iron worker for the Local 25 Union for many years. He also laid flooring with Fernando Rojas for a number of years.
He spent much of his time with family and friends, especially his two sons and three granddaughters, whom he adored. He also loved fixing things and was a jack of all trades. You could often find him working on his truck or lending a helping hand to anyone in need. Brian had many passions in life, including gardening, in which he had quite the green thumb. He also enjoyed woodworking with his close friend Tommy Kuchar.
Brian is survived by his sons, Zackary (Veda) Conklin, and Dylan Conklin; three granddaughters, Carsyn, Kinsley and Sienna Conklin; sisters Lisa (Richard) Tithof and Charlene (Gerald) Fuoss; brothers Charles Conklin and Kevin Conklin and many nieces and nephews. He is preceded in his death by his mother Rita Conklin and Charles Conklin.
