John Carter Van Straaten Obituary
It is always difficult saying goodbye to someone we love and cherish. Family and friends must say goodbye to their beloved John Carter Van Straaten of Faribault, Minnesota, born in Minneapolis, Minnesota, who passed away at the age of 81, on August 28, 2022. Leave a sympathy message to the family in the guestbook on this memorial page of John Carter Van Straaten to show support.
He was loved and cherished by many people including: his parents, Jessica Straaten and John Van Straaten; his wife Linda Eggers; his son Michael (Meegan) of Rochester, MN; his grandchildren, Johan and Alexa; his son Jeffrey (Aimee) of Duluth, MN; his grandchildren, Elizabeth and Brooke; his brother Ray of Minneapolis; and his close friends, Scotland, Netherlands and Denmark.
If you are so inclined, the family suggests memorials be directed to Camp Olson YMCA , 4160 Little Boy Rd NE, Longville, MN 56655 (donations in his name will go towards the creation of the new Art/Craft Center building.) Or, if preferred, Jack would also be honored if you chose to donate to the passion of your choice.
