Michael Anthony Egan

Michael was born on September 16, 1966, in Philadelphia, Pennsylvania to Mary Nicolas and Thomas “Rocco” Michael Egan. Growing up, he lived in Philadelphia and briefly in Roswell, Georgia and then settled in San Diego, California where he finished high school. He served a short period in the United States Marine Corps as an Aircraft Structures Mechanic at Marine Air Station Tustin, California.

After returning to San Diego, his daughter, Anastasia “Stasie” Marie Chambers was born. Soon after, he moved to Huber Heights, Ohio where he met and married his former wife, Marianne Idzi. As a military spouse, Michael experienced living in multiple locations across the United States, as well as education and occupation changes to include his graduating from the Criminal Justice Academy of Osceola and later graduating from Kaiser College for Radiological Technology in which he spent the majority of employment period as an X-Ray, MRI and CAT Scan technician. While he and Marianne were living in Colorado, their son, Michael Patrick Egan, was born.

Michael engaged in several passions throughout his life, Formula One Racing, playing guitar, cooking, photography, art, stargazing, riding motorcycles, flying airplanes, watchmaking, leather working, and gunsmithing. He even freelanced as an extra and stand-in for television and movie productions such as “The Cape,” a 1996 series starring Corbin Bernsen, “From the Earth to The Moon,” a 1998 HBO miniseries produced by Tom Hanks, as well as the 1997 film “Contact” starring Jodie Foster. Michael had many interests and talents, and he loved to share his enjoyments with his family and friends.

Michael was an intelligent, funny and passionate man. He could learn how to do just about anything by watching how to do it once. He could make you laugh so hard that you would get the hiccups. He took great pride in everything he did.

He is preceded by death, by his father, Rocco, and is survived by his ex-wife, Marianne, and son, Michael, of Melbourne Florida; his daughter, Stasie, and her children, Astrid Chambers, Liium Collins, Eiilum Collins, and Zeppelin Collins of New Lebanon, Ohio and his mother, Mary of San Diego, California. He is also survived by his half-sister, Shanna Egan and step-mother, Margaret “Peggy” Sheridan of Philadelphia, Pennsylvania.

No services are currently planned. Arrangements have been made to return Mike to Melbourne, Florida for his final resting place.

Godspeed Mike, as you travel the path of the transcendent universe… May you find eternal serenity.
