Donald Eagen Obituary
Donald was a graduate of Wyoming Seminary Preparatory School. He earned a Bachelor of Arts from Yale University and a Master of Business Administration from Columbia University. He also studied law at Harvard University.
Mr. Eagen enlisted in the United States Army and served our country during World War II. He worked for more than 40 years in the financial services industry, beginning as an investment analyst with Reynolds Inc., Philadelphia, and continuing as an investment adviser in the trust department of the former Meridian Bank, now known as Wells Fargo.
An avid reader, traveler (in his younger days) and student of history, Mr. Eagen was able to converse eloquently on multiple topics, including politics, literature and American history. He was a member of the Mory's Club, New Haven, Conn., and the Vesper Club, Philadelphia.
Donald is survived by his brothers, Joseph A. Eagen, husband of Marguerite (Killeen) Eagen, Kingston; and James L.

Thornton, Jr.; three great-nephews (Evan, Jack and Jake) and three great-nieces (Emma, Grace and Addie).
