(From Housh-Goodwin Funeral Home)Bobby Andrew Agan, of Sarcoxie, Missouri, passed on June 27, 2022 surrounded by his family following a long battle with cancer.
Bob was born March 3, 1938, outside of Sarcoxie, MO, to Charles and Mellie (Baker) Agan.
As a young boy, Bob watched the soldiers come home from WWII in his hometown, which inspired him to later join the military. Bob served in the United States Navy from 1957-1959 in California.
Following his Naval service, Bob worked at Vickers, H.E. Williams, and Flex-O-Laters. After many failed retirements, Bob finally retired in 2020.
Bob married Betty Fagg on June 7, 1969. They spent 53 years together in the same house, creating a life they loved. On January 5, 1972, Bob became a dad to his daughter Puddin’ Barbara Agan. On August 13, 1977 Bob’s son, Robert Andrew, was born sleeping.
A true outdoorsman, Bob spent most of his life outside. Bob’s sanctuary was 13 acres of his family’s farm outside of Sarcoxie, where he spent many hours hunting, training dogs, picking blackberries, and enjoying the serenity of nature.
