Michael B. Egan
March 15th, 1950 - September 22nd, 2021
Michael B. Egan, 71, of Idaho Falls, passed away peacefully on September 22, 2021, at the Idaho Falls Community Hospital surrounded by family.
Mike was born on March 15, 1950, in Idaho Falls, Idaho, to Merritt and Betty Egan. Mike was blessed to be raised in Bedford, Wyoming. He proudly served in the Wyoming National Guard for 7 years.
Mike inherited his parents’ green thumb and love of creating beauty with flowers. This love grew into a successful family business. Following in his parent’s footsteps, he opened Egan’s Greenhouse in Idaho Falls in 1988. Mike had the gift of gab and shared this love of flowers and gardening with all who visited the greenhouse. Mike’s passion was growing beautiful tomatoes loved by all. He didn’t like to eat the tomatoes, but he loved to grow them. Mike was blessed in having the privilege of working with 3 generations of his family.
Mike was a rockhound at heart. He loved any opportunity to camp or fish with his family. Mike’s smile beamed and his heart was content as he enjoyed rides on his Harley with his sweetheart Luann, friends, and family. Mike was a member of The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints and served faithfully in various callings.
Mike was survived by his dear wife, Luann of Idaho Falls, daughter Tami Bean of Idaho Falls (Kurt Murdock), son Billy of Idaho Falls (Miranda), grandchildren, Coby, Austin, Dylan, Kailee, and Carsen, and great-granddaughter, Addisyn Bean.
Mike was preceded in death by his parents Merritt and Betty Egan, and sister, Joan Egan.
