William Elliott Egan
May 10, 1942 — May 7, 2023
William Elliott Egan, "Bill", age 80, of Wadsworth, Ohio, died on May 7, 2023.
He was born on May 10, 1942 in El Dorado, Kansas, the son of the late Con Paul and Dorothy (nee Elliott) Egan.
He was a graduate of El Dorado High School in 1960 and went on and earned his bachelor of science degree from Wichita State University graduating in 1968. He worked and retired from Goodyear Tire and Rubber Company, after 38 years of service in 2006, as chief engineer along with many other jobs within the company. Bill earned many patents that are still used today in tire technology. After retirement, he worked for 6 years at Lowe's in Wadsworth.
In his younger years he was active in Tallmadge Little League and umpired for the boys baseball teams at the "Hole" in Tallmadge. He loved cars and tinkering with them, buying his first one at the age of 10, which enabled him to form a career for the rest of his life. He loved the outdoors and working in the yard. Above all he enjoyed and loved his family.
Survivors include his loving wife, the former Ann Frazier, whom he married on November 2, 1963; his two daughters, Andrea (Robert) Booth of Midlothian, Virginia and Ashley Adomaites and her companion, Jason Bluy of Fairview Park, Ohio; and four grandchildren, Austin and Bailey Booth and Molly and Max Adomaites.
His one sister also survives, Connie Hildebrand of Fort Myers, Florida.
Should anyone want to honor Bill, you may do so by contributing to the Alzhiemer's Association in his memory.
The family would like to thank the wonderful memory care staff at The Village at St. Edwards Wadsworth for loving Bill and taking care of us – Angel, Wendy, Patty, Misty, Melissa, Heather, Lauralai, NanEl and countless others. A special thanks to his hospice caregivers Jessica and Erin as well.
There will not be any calling hours or services and all arrangements have been entrusted to the care of Newcomer Funeral Home, Akron, Ohio.
