John Egan Obituary

John "Jack" Egan passed away peacefully on June 1, 2013 surrounded by his family. He was born September 16, 1934 to John Joseph Egan and Mary MacNally in Brooklyn, New York who immigrated to the US from Ireland. He served our country in the US Air Force for 20 years Active Duty and 22 years Civil Service. During his journeys, he met the love of his life, Ana, (from Kilkenny, Ireland), and they shared 47 loving and magnificent years together. Jack was very dedicated to his wife and he remained devoted to her after her passing. He looked forward to the day they would be reunited and she was there with open arms for him. Jack was an exceptional Marksman, avid hunter, a brilliant business man and was passionately involved in Greyhound Racing. He was a very talented and gifted man and always helped those in need. Jack was an extraordinarily admirable man, loving husband, father, grandfather, great-grandfather, brother and a friend to many. He was preceded in death by his wife, Ana. He is survived by his three children, John M. Egan, Sharon (Egan) Westby and Tara (Egan) Tenney and son-in- law Bryan Tenney; eight grandchildren, Jack Morris, Nicholas Westby, Steven Westby, Shaun Dingel, Kelson Dingel, Melissa (Egan) Brown, Elicia Egan and Jessica Egan; four great-grandchildren, Robbie Egan, Bailey Egan, Aurora Brown, and Cian Brown; brother, Andrew Egan and cousin, Helen Dunn.
