Michael Cameron Edgar, "Mike", age 75, passed away peacefully at home on Monday, September 20, 2021. Mike was born in Warren, MN on August 17, 1946, son of the late Donald and Helen (nee: Ovsak) Edgar. Mike graduated from Northwest School of Agriculture in Crookston, MN in 1964 and joined the Navy. He married his High School sweetheart, Darlyne Kovar on August 18, 1966 in Tabor, MN. Together they packed everything they owned in the back of a 1965 Mustang and drove to Georgia. Shortly thereafter, they moved to Washington where Mike was stationed at Whidbey Island. In 1970, Mike moved the family to Hastings, where he began a 32-year career as an Air Traffic Controller. Following his retirement, he enjoyed trips to the Casino, going up North and doing field work, going to the Dairy Queen, and spending time with his family. Mike was a gifted artist and craftsman. Over the years he created countless paintings and pieces of furniture that will be passed down for generations to come and surround his family with comfort. Mike will be best remembered for his kindness and generosity, his braveness over the past six years, his quiet nature, and his tremendous love for his family, especially his grandchildren. Mike will be dearly missed by his loving wife of fifty-five years, Darlyne; children, Shelly (Bob) Wilhelmi, Shannon (Keith) Chamberlain, and Cameron (Jennie) Edgar; grandchildren, Vanessa (Isiah) Juliar, Hayley (Taylor) Randall, Emily, Dylan and Lauren Chamberlain, and Mikaela and Katelyn Edgar; brother, Ralph (Jean) Edgar; sisters, Mary (Orris) Stengrim, Annette (Gayle) Kuznia, and JoAnne (Jim) Ranstrom; many nieces, nephews, cousins, other relatives and friends.
