LONGVIEW Charles Allen Carrigan went to Heaven Saturday, March 3, 2012. He was surrounded by his loving family. Mr. Carrigan was born January 4, 1941, in Phoenix, AZ to Allen L. Carrigan and Frances Marie Laverty.
He was the best "Papa," husband, dad, Cuz, Bubba and friend to many people in his life. He loved anything outdoors, fishing, animals, watching his grandkids play and spending time with family and friends. Mr. Carrigan was retired from Dynegy, where he was employed for 23 years. Anyone that knew him, knew he was always happy and joking around getting everyone that was with him to laugh.
We can't wait to meet him again in Heaven one day at that fishing hole we all know he has already baited out!
