About Joe Eggleston
Big Joe
On July 31st, our Dad/Grandpa Joe left San Diego/Mexico to go on a fishing trip to Sitka, Alaska with a bunch of buddies. He had the best trip ever, partied HARDY, caught 150 pounds of fish, reminisced about the good ole days, bonded with the boys, enjoyed himself and his company every day. The last day of the trip (August 5th), the gang went to breakfast. Dad decided to sleep in, told Alan to say good-bye for him, and off they went. When Alan returned, our Dad was already gone. EMS was called, arrived almost instantly, tended to my Dad for 45 minutes, and then transferred him to the hospital. Unfortunately, they were unable to save him. We were told that he passed from a massive heart attack.
