Francis L. Eagan Jr., 82 of Allentown, passed away Monday, November 2, 2020 at RWJ Hamilton. Born in Newark, he lived in North Arlington for 40 years before moving to Wayne. His dream of owning a horse farm eventually brought him to the Allentown area where he has been since 1988.

Son of the late Madeline and Francis L. Eagan Sr., he was predeceased by his wife, Mary Lou Eagan. Frank is survived by his children, Kathleen and Joseph Sandford of New Egypt, Francis III and Theresa Eagan of Toms River and Daniel Eagan of Cream Ridge; his grandchildren, Lynn Kerr and her husband Dan, Laura Sandford, Shannon Eagan and Sean Eagan; his great grandson, Connor Kerr and his brother and sister-in-law, Dennis and Jane Eagan of Whippany.

Frank, as he was known by many, was the epitome of an entrepreneur. His entrepreneurial adventures and hard work began when he was only 18 years old and opened Eagan's Automatic Transmission Specialists! From there he joined Eagan's Restaurant in North Arlington, Carousel Ice Cream in Kearny, Joker's Wild Amusements in Seaside, The MilkieWay in Lavallette, Sterling Farm and Eagan's Trucking in Cream Ridge and Eagan's Truck Parts in Robbinsville! Whether he bought you a dinner or a drink, sponsored a team or donated to your cause he left a lasting impression on many! His wit and personality will be missed by many.

A visitation will be held Friday from 4-8pm at the Peppler Funeral Home, 114 S. Main St. Allentown. Mass of Christian Burial will be celebrated 10am on Saturday at St. John's Church, 1282 Yardville Allentown Rd., Allentown. Interment will follow in the Parish Cemetery.
