Roy Evgen, 84, died Tuesday, March 2, 2021 in Community Memorial Hospital, Cloquet.  He was born on January 23, 1937 in Minneapolis to Elmer and Jennie Evgen.  Roy grew up in the Cedar, MN area and attended St. Francis High School.  On September 7, 1957, Roy married Frieda Evgen.  They lived in Columbia Heights where they raised four children.  Roy worked as a lineman for Donovan Construction until retiring in 1995 to their lake home on Island Lake in Sturgeon Lake where many special memories were made with loved ones.  Roy loved fishing and called himself the "Walleye King" although settling for the northerns and sunfish that often found his bait.  Roy loved gardening, country music, and will be well remembered for his great sense of humor.  Big hugs and whisker rubs were often received from him.  Of all things, Roy's greatest passion was his kids and grandkids.

He was preceded in death by his wife, Frieda on December 13, 2020 and a sister: MaryAnn Griep.
