When news broke that Anthony “Tony” Kjaglien was found deceased in a semi-wooded area near Nevis, Minn. on Friday afternoon, people near and far were in utter shock. Kjaglien was a remembered as a friendly guy who many people say, “gave the best bear hugs ever!”. Kjaglien was also an assistant coach who helped with the Fergus Falls Middle School boys basketball teams.
The family would appreciate for those who have pictures of Kjaglien, and want to share them to be included in the memorial service, to post them on the Facebook group, “Anthony “Tony” Kjaglien” or email them to redeske99@yahoo.com, preferably in a high-quality, .JPEG format.
Tentatively, his memorial service will be held at Olson Funeral Home in Fergus Falls on Wednesday, March 31st from 4 to 7PM. His funeral service will then be held at First Lutheran Church at 2:00PM on Thursday, April 1st. Again, the dates and times of these services are tentative, as the family is waiting for full details regarding Kjaglien’s death.
Kjaglien leaves behind a wife, Michelle Karst-Kjaglien, as well as a tw0-and-a-half year-old son.
