MN - It is with deep sadness and sorrow that we announce the passing of our beloved father, John Badger of CHF. A father of seven, he is preceded in passing by his daughter, Suzanne. He is survived by daughters: Julie, Dawn, Christina, Rebbeca, Kathleen and Anna, as well as 14 grandchildren and 7 great grandchildren.

John was an amazing father and faithful, dependable husband and a friend to all. He was a loving, generous, kind, humble, hardworking, lighthearted, fun loving and deeply spiritual man who was immensely dedicated to his family. He was an entrepreneur, realtor, engineer, inventor, mechanic, home (& tree house/skate rink ;) builder, craftsman, artist, champion pool player, great story teller and the world's best pancake maker (they were truly epic)!! He sacrificed much for many and never a complaint or negative word passed his lips.

There are no words to express the gratitude we feel for having had him as our father, friend, and mentor. His departure has left a hole in our hearts that will never be filled. Our loss is Heaven's gain.

Service will be on 11/29/25 at Bethany Bible Church, 511 Eagle Lake Road, Big Lake, MN at 1PM.
