Michael Eginoire

Michael was born February 26, 1955 in Minneapolis, MN to Marilyn and Willard Eginoire and went to be with his Lord on September 14, 2016 after a long illness. Visitation will be held from 5:00 to 7:00 p.m. on Monday, September 19, 2016 at Hamilton’s Southtown Funeral Home, 5400 SW 9th Street. A Celebration of Life Service will be held at 10:00 a.m. on Tuesday, September 20th at the funeral home.

While at Lincoln High School in Des Moines, (class of 1973), he was a member and an important student leader in the Swing Choir. Michael’s love of music and guitar drove him to become an accomplished rock and classical guitarist. While living in California, Michael’s band (The See) was the opening act for various well known bands. Michael’s music and work, (dental lab technician), allowed him to live in New Orleans, LA, Monterrey, CA, St. Cloud, MN and Des Moines. He also had a true love for sailing that he enjoyed his entire life.

Michael is survived by his loving wife, Nancy; brothers, James (Lynne) and Ron (Toni); daughters Michelle Bailey (Josh) and Sarah Grant (Richie); grandchildren, Mallory, Landon, Gavin and Ethan Grant and many nieces and nephews and a group of close friends – you know who you are. Michael was preceded in death by his parents, grandparents, sister-in-law, Nanette and his beloved pet dog, Madison.

"Music is forever; music should grow and mature with you, following you right on up until you die" – Paul Simon.
