John Alfred Meagher, 57, of Lake Havasu City, died in an off roading
accident in Glamis, California on Jan. 2, 2024.

He was born in Dayton, Ohio in 1966 to Janet (Glowacki) and Matthew
Meagher III, who joyfully welcomed him to their growing family. John was
named after his cherished grandfather Alford Goglin who shaped and
guided his life. John grew up in Montville, Ohio with his siblings and
they enjoyed creating havoc and memories for the town to hear. He and
his brothers loved to be the entertainment.

John joined the Army where he enlisted as a heavy equipment mechanic in
1986. He then received badges for excelling as a rifle marksman and
paratrooper during his service. He took pride in his accomplishments and
enjoyed retelling his Army adventures.

John raised his two strong-willed children. He loved talking to and
motivating his kids as they grew. John loved his dogs, treating each one
like the treasured family members they were. John and his friends were
always up to something. Each season of his life he was able to find
activities and create memories.

Everyone who knew John understood how much he loved tinkering with
things in his garage. John took pride in being the go-to person in
fixing items and being the source of knowledge for friends and family.
John will always be remembered for his socializing and the way that he
made friends and connections to all.

There is no one who could have replaced him as a father, brother, uncle,
and son. His memory will live on in the hearts of all those who knew and
loved him.

John was preceded in death by his father Matthew Meagher III. He is
survived by his much-loved children Angelina and Marc as well as his
beloved nephew Devon (Nicole) Marotta, his loving mother Janet Glowacki
and four siblings Wendy (Tim) Hambor, Matthew (Terri) Meagher IV, Laurie
Meagher, and Robert (Marcie) Meagher.

Flowers and contributions can be sent to Leitz-Fraze Funeral Home in
Lake Havasu City.
